| Additional Course Info | Class Number: 1551 Survey of organic chemistry reactions in an aqueous environment, highlighting transformations important for understanding the properties and reactivity of biomolecules in the cell, with emphasis on functional groups, acids and bases, chirality, energetics, reaction mechanisms, enzyme inhibitors and drug design. Three lectures and one lab period per week required via co-enrollment in CHEM H222L.; Prerequisite(s): CHEM H111 lecture and lab, or CHEM H113 lecture and lab; and CHEM H112B lecture and lab, or CHEM H114 lecture and lab. Students who have taken a two semester General Chemistry course elsewhere (for instance, CHEM B103 and CHEM B104) must, prior to the start of CHEM H222, demonstrate knowledge (by a self-scheduled assessment) of common organic functional group structures and spectroscopic methods (as covered by CHEM H111 and CHEM H113); students should contact the Department Chair and/or the instructor immediately after preregistration to obtain access to a self-guided course centered on these topics. Such students are not guaranteed entry into Chem 222A.; Enrollment Limit: 32 Div: II; Natural Science, C: Physical and Natural Processes (; Hav: NA, C) |
