General Education: AA/AS Area A.
Course Transferable to UC/CSU
Hours: 54 hours LEC ; 54 hours LAB
Description: The CHEM 425, 426 series is designed to fulfill the requirements of students planning professional school studies in the health and biological sciences. It will also satisfy the needs of students majoring in the life sciences and related areas. This course is intended for students not majoring in chemistry and not planning to take additional courses in organic chemistry. Lecture topics include the preparation, properties, and reactions of alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, alkyl halides, alcohols, and ethers with emphasis on applications in the biological sciences. Also included is the study of stereoisomerism, mass spectrometry, and spectroscopy (UV/VIS and IR). Laboratory work covers standard laboratory practices including extraction, crystallization, distillation, chromatography (gas, thin layer, and column), polarimetry, organic synthesis, reaction analysis, and spectroscopy (IR) with emphasis on biological applications.

CHEM 426    Organic Chemistry with Biological Emphasis    4 Units

Prerequisite: CHEM 425 with a grade of "C" or better.
General Education: AA/AS Area A.
Course Transferable to UC/CSU
Hours: 54 hours LEC ; 54 hours LAB
Description: This course, a continuation of CHEM 425, focuses on the preparation, properties, reactions, and spectroscopy (IR, NMR, mass and UV) of organic compounds, including benzene and benzene derivatives, aldehydes, ketones, dicarbonyl compounds, carboxylic acids, and amines. Applications in the biological sciences are emphasized. An introduction to the chemistry of biological macromolecule (lipids, carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids) is also presented. Laboratory work includes qualitative analysis, multi-step organic synthesis, instrumentation (IR and GC), protein electrophoresis, and investigations in photochemistry, dyes, and biological macromolecules.

CHEM 495    Independent Studies in Chemistry    1-3 Units

Prerequisite: None
Course Transferable to UC/CSU
Hours: 162 hours LEC
Description: This course involves an individual student or small groups of students in study, research, or activities beyond the scope of regular offered courses, pursuant to an agreement among college, faculty members and students. Independent studies in chemistry offers students a chance to do research and/or experimentation that is more typical of industry and graduate student work.
