CHM422HETEROCYCLIC CHEMISTRY

CHM422 – Heterocyclic Chemistry

Students in this course study the synthesis, properties, and reactivity of heterocyclic compounds containing nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur atoms. Emphasis is placed on five- and six-membered ring systems, which are common in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and dyes.

The course highlights mechanisms and functional group transformations unique to heterocycles. Applications in medicinal chemistry and biochemistry make this course essential for drug design and organic synthesis careers.
