Scope: This subject imparts knowledge on stereo-chemical aspects of Organic compounds
and organic reactions, important named reactions, chemistry of important hetero cyclic
compounds. It also emphasizes on Medicinal and other uses of organic compounds.
Objectives: At the end of the course, the student shall be able to
1. understand the methods of preparation and properties of organic compounds
2. explain the stereo chemical aspects of organic compounds and stereo chemical reactions
3. know the medicinal uses and other applications of organic compounds
