Description
Physical Organic I is an introduction to advanced physical organic chemistry. Mechanism drawing with arrows to denote the movement of an electron density will be a unifying theme. The course will overview organic bonding (basic molecular orbital theory, anomeric effect), structure (bond lengths, bond angles, delocalization and resonance, conformational analysis), and reactivity (electronegativity, nucleophilicity, electrophilicity, acidity, basicity, stereoelectronics).
