Organic Chemistry II
MIT OpenCourseWare offers this intermediate organic chemistry course covering methods for determining the structure of organic molecules, advanced stereochemistry, reaction mechanisms, and synthesis strategies. The material extends into special topics that connect organic chemistry to biology, medicine, and industrial applications, showing how core concepts apply beyond the classroom. Course materials include lecture notes, problem sets, and exams typical of MIT's OCW chemistry offerings, allowing self-paced study of reaction mechanisms and synthetic design. The course builds directly on a first-semester organic chemistry foundation, pushing into more advanced structural analysis and multistep synthesis problems. As with other MIT OCW courses, all content is free to access, with no certificate offered. It suits students who have completed introductory organic chemistry and want a deeper, mechanism-focused second course.
