CHEM 30B
Introduction to General, Organic and Biochemistry II


Course Description

This course is the second quarter of the general inorganic, organic, and biological chemistry course for students entering allied health fields. Introduction to General, Organic, and Biochemistry II focuses on organic chemistry and biochemistry. Topics covered include organic structure, nomenclature, physical properties, and reactivity of small organic molecules. Functional groups will be introduced in the context of their reactivity and biochemical roles. Additional biochemistry topics surveyed include biological macromolecules (carbohydrates, fatty acids and lipids, amino acids and proteins, nucleic acids and DNA) as well as metabolism and enzymatic reactions. The physical and chemical properties of these biological molecules will be examined.
