Introduction to atomic and electronic structure, chemical bonding, molecular structure and bonding theories, properties of liquids, solids and solutions, chemical equilibrium, kinetics, thermodynamics, metal complexes, organic compounds and nuclear chemistry.

An Introduction to Organic Chemistry A new mechanistic approach to the study of chemical reactions and survey of Hydrocarbons, Alcohols, Esters, Aldehydes and Ketones, Carboxylic Acids and their derivatives, Amines, Aminoacids and Proteins. The course emphasizes fundamental properties of organic compounds.

An introduction to Organic Chemistry. A short summary of chemical bonds, Lewis structures, formal charge, resonance, atomic and molecular orbitals, hybridization of organic molecules and geometries. Representative carbon compounds: functional groups. Fundamental principles of Organic reactions. Nomenclature and conformational analysis of Alkanes. The course emphasizes Stereochemistry and ionic reactions i.e. nucleophilic substitution and elimination reactions.

An introduction to organic chemistry. A new mechanistic approach to the study of chemical reactions and survey of hydrocarbons, alcohols, esters, aldehydes, ketones carboxylic acids and their derivatives; aromatic compounds, amines, aminoacids and proteins. The course also emphasizes fundamentals of biochemistry; enzymes, metabolic transformations, membrane structure and functions.
