Chemistry 3B: Chemical Structure and Reactivity

Chemistry 3B: Chemical Structure and Reactivity (Fall 2012, UC Berkeley). Instructor: Professor Peter Vollhardt. Chemistry 3B represents the second semester of the standard organic chemistry series at UC Berkeley. It covers conjugation, aromatic chemistry, carbonyl compounds, carbohydrates, amines, carboxylic acids, amino acids, peptides, proteins, and nucleic acid chemistry. Ultraviolet spectroscopy and mass spectrometry will be introduced.
