Welcome to the CH 231 homepage. This site will serve as a repository for all class materials, announcements, and a source of resources to help you succeed in organic chemistry. I would encourage you to use this site, as many students have found it to be a valuable resource.

The goals for CH 231 include understanding the structure of common organic molecules, learning about spectroscopic methods for determining organic structure, and learning some of the common reactions of organic molecules. Organic chemistry provides an important intellectual base for students in chemistry,chemical engineering, biology, and pre-health majors. Even if you never use the concepts learned in organic chemistry beyond this class, which is unlikely if you pursue a degree in chemistry, chemical engineering, or biology, the problem solving skills learned in organic chemistry will serve you throughout your academic career and beyond.

Materials for CH 231

All of the materials below should be availabe at the Supe Store and the off-campus bookstores. I have also included links to where you can find these on line.

• Textbook (required): Organic Chemistry, 6th Ed., John McMurry: Amazon | Froogle
• OWL Access Code (required): This code will come with your textbook if bought new at a UA-affiliated bookstore. If you did not get a code with your text, you can purchase one from the SUPE store or online from Thomson publishing. To register your code click here. Register for the Spring 2007 section of CH 231.
• Student Response Meter (required): e-Instruction CPS Clicker. Click here to register your clicker (class code N25873A576)
• Study Guide (optional): Organic Chemistry: Study Guide and Student Manual, 6th Ed, Susan McMurry: Amazon | Froogle
• Molecular Model set (optional): Indigo Foundation Molecular Model Set. Any organic molecular model set would be fine.
