Course Objectives

The organic compounds are classified based on their functional groups

and character. The basic principles and mechanisms of different types of organic reactions are explained in an elaborative manner.

Course Outcome

The detailed study on the mechanisms involved in various reactions would

help the students to understand the synthesis of higher organic compounds which would be dealt in future classes.
