This unit develops the introduction to organic chemistry given in CHEM 10100 to provide the essential base of organic chemistry required for advanced study at Levels 3 and 4. It covers the main areas of the subject e.g. the chemistry of carbanions, carbocations and radicals, monofunctional and difunctional carbonyl compounds, aromatic and homocyclic and heterocyclic compounds, amino derivatives and modern aspects of synthesis. Practical sessions and workshops are integral to the unit.
