Organic Chemistry 2
Continuation of Organic Chemistry I. Methods of analysis, chemistry of hydrocarbons (alkenes, alkynes, aromatic hydrocarbons), chemistry of the carbonyl group (aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, carboxylic acid derivatives). Emphasis on mechanistic aspects of reactions and effects of molecular structure on reactivity.

The reactions of alkenes are studied in this chapter: the hydrogenation, the electrophilic addition of hydrogen halides with the Markovnikov rule, the electrophilic hydration, the electrophilic halogenation, the hydroboration-oxidation with the formation of anti-Markovnikov products, the epoxide synthesis, the vicinal syn dihydroxylation, the ozonolysis – an oxidative cleavage, the radical bromination.
