A survey of the functional groups of organic compounds and their simple derivatives in terms of nomenclature, structure, bonding, syntheses, reactions, and stereochemistry. Physical and chemical properties are examined for each functional group and related to the structure. Students examine reactivity orders, orientation effects, and reaction rates. Students submit a paper using a formal argument to correlate molecular structure to observed properties of reaction type. 3 lecture hours.
