A continuation of CHE 2530, students will extend their studies to the spectroscopic analysis of hydrocarbons. Additional topics include aromatic compounds, adehydes, ketones, carbanions, carboxylic acids and their derivatives, amines, phenols, amino acids, polymers, lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins, and nucleic acids. Labs (still microscale) will investigate a range of multistep reaction sequences, as well as a few short classic reactions. Prerequisite: CHE 2530. Campus and term: J spring
