Description

This Organic Chemistry Online Course is a very comprehensive course recommended for students learning faculty of science (chemistry, physics, biology) or chemical engineering with basic general chemistry knowledge. This basic course focused on current theories of mechanism and structure in organic chemistry, their historical development, and their basis in experimental observation.

In this course we will discover together the wonders of chemistry, understand the relationships between the properties and typical reactions of the different organic compounds. We will perceive the structure-reactivity relationship, and enjoy understanding the language and logic of chemistry.

The course covers bonding schemes, orbital theories, stereochemistry and physical properties of the organic compounds, and details reaction types and mechanisms of alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, alkyl halides, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids and derivatives, alcohols and amines.
