Chemistry of aldehydes and ketones (reactions at
and adjacent to the carbonyl group, enolization,
conjugate addition, oxidation, reduction).
Lecture, conference, laboratory. Synthesis,
chemistry of carboxylic acids and derivatives (pKa
of acids, nucleophilic substitution of
derivatives, acyl chlorides, esters, amides,
anhydrides, nitriles). Carbohydrates
(stereochemistry, aldoketoses, aldopentoses,
aldohexoses, ketosugars, derivatives, furanose and
pyranose forms, reducing and nonreducing sugars,
disaccharides and polysaccharides); fats and oils;
aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene, resonance and
molecular orbital approaches, electrophilic and
nucleophilic aromatic substitution); aromatic
nitrogen and oxygen chemistry (diazotization,
synthesis); chemistry of amines, amino acids,
peptides, proteins, DNA; other topics. Lecture,
discussion, laboratory.
