Course Details

Country: Thailand
Course Title: Organic Chemistry
Course Number: SCCH 172
Course Description: Organic chemistry encompasses the chemistry of molecules built up primarily of carbon, hydrogen and other elements such as oxygen and nitrogen. Such molecules are abundant in nature and are essential for life, such as being the basis of proteins, genetic material, and enzymes. Additionally, organic compounds are the components of many products we use on a daily basis, such as medicines, cosmetics, soaps/detergents, and fuels. Therefore, these molecules exhibit much structural diversity, giving rise to different levels of reactivity and many different properties. The goal of this course is to provide students with an outline of the general classes of organic molecules, and discuss the nature of each in terms of how they react, how they can be prepared, their chemical/physical properties, and their applications in different areas of science.
