Fundamentals of Organic Chemistry

This comprehensive certificate course in Organic Chemistry covers essential topics such as molecular structure, bonding, and the principles of resonance and acid-base chemistry. Students will explore alkanes, cycloalkanes, and various functional groups, alongside stereochemistry and the mechanisms of substitution and elimination reactions. The course also delves into alkenes, alkynes, alcohols, ethers, epoxides, and sulfides. While organic chemistry may seem challenging at first, with dedication and a solid study plan, students will find it an engaging and rewarding subject. This course aims to demystify organic chemistry by focusing on the interactions of carbon-containing molecules without the need for complex equations, emphasizing electron flow and molecular interactions.
