Description
A continuation of organic chemistry with emphasis on intermediate reactive species, mechanism elucidation, condensations and cycloadditions, organometallic reagents, aliphatic and aromatic substitutions, and reaction site selectivity. Also, molecular rearrangements and multi-step synthesis pathways. Frequent reference to the current chemical literature. Prerequisite: completion of CHE 206 (or its equivalent) with a grade of C or better or permission of instructor.
