This course provides a basic introduction to organic functional groups such as alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, aromatic compounds, stereochemistry, alkyl halides, aldehydes, ketones, alcohols, phenols, aryl halides, ethers, carboxylic acids and their derivatives, amines, diazonium salts, carbohydrate and polymer. It also covers the study of nomenclature, structure, physical and chemical properties, chemical reactivity, stereochemistry, synthesis, reaction mechanism, and spectroscopy.
Give lectures based on the text books by explanation, writing on paper or presenting via PowerPoint. Questions and answers in class. Use computer program to visualize some concepts.
