Organic Reaction Mechanisms Synthesis

This core chemistry course aims to develop your understanding of fundamentals of organic chemistry concepts that are essential for future advance chemistry courses and any practicing chemists. This course is also great preparation for a PhD and a career in chemistry research.

On completing this course, you have extended your understanding of organic reaction mechanisms beyond the first- and second-year contents to more advanced chemistry. You will understand issues of selectivity and specificity, especially in terms of regio-, stereo-, and chemo-selectivity and specificity. You will be able to propose syntheses of molecules of higher complexity.
