CHM102INTRODUCTORY ORGANIC CHEMISTRY I

CHM102 – Introductory Organic Chemistry I focuses on the structure, properties, and reactions of carbon-containing compounds. Students are introduced to hydrocarbon types (alkanes, alkenes, alkynes), functional groups, isomerism, and reaction mechanisms. Nomenclature and basic spectroscopic identification are also covered.

This course combines theoretical understanding with practical skills through lab sessions where students synthesize and analyze organic compounds. It lays the groundwork for higher-level organic chemistry studies essential in pharmaceuticals, biochemistry, and material science.
