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