CHEM 744 - Stereochemistry and Conformational Analysis

(3 units)
Stereoisomerism, molecular symmetry, chirality, optical activity, torsional isomerism, conformations of cyclic and acyclic molecules, stereoselectivity and stereospecificity, chiral discrimination, stereochemical methods.

Units of Lecture: 3
Student Learning Outcomes (if available):
Upon completion of this course:
1. Students will be able to explain fundamental concepts of topicity and chirality of organic molecules.
2. Students will be able to describe molecular stereochemistry using precise definitions of stereochemical vocabulary.
3. Students will be able to articulate the differences and interplay between conformation and stereochemistry.
4. Students will be able to quantify the kinetic and thermodynamic factors that dictate conformational preferences and stereocontrol.
