Courses taught by Dr. Blakemore

The CH334/5/6 sequence is an intensive sophomore organic chemistry course for chemistry and biochemistry majors. CH335 carries on from the departure point of CH334 (a prerequisite) and in its first part (weeks 1-7) focuses on the chemistry of unsaturated carbon-carbon bond systems (alkenes, alkynes, and arenes). During the second part of the course (weeks 8-10), structural elucidation of organic compounds by the joint application of certain key analytical techniques (including IR and NMR spectroscopies and mass spectrometry) is explored through worked example classes.

Advanced Organic Chemistry		CH632 is the final segment in the CH630/1/2 core sequence of advanced level organic chemistry courses offered to graduate students at OSU. Successful completion of this course is a program requirement for all organic division graduate students within the Department of Chemistry. CH632 focuses on modern methods used to effect functional group interconversions within the context of target directed synthesis.
