CHEM 5362. Organic Reaction Mechanisms. 3 Hours.
Current models for mechanisms of organic reactions are discussed and applied. The mechanisms and applications of synthetically important reactions are also surveyed. Literature searching for less often utilized but historically important transformations are integral to the course. The methods of determining reaction mechanisms are surveyed along with applications to individual reactions.
Prerequisite: CHEM 2325, CHEM 2125.
