FSAB 1301 (Chemistry 1) or a similar course
FSAB 1302 (Chemistry 2) or or a similar course
|
| Main themes |
The course is divided in two parts. The first part (1.2 ECTS) deals with "generalities" required for a good comprehension of the reactivity, namely the way that organic compounds react in given conditions, or the reasons why they do not react; the second part (2.8 ECTS) describes the chemical behaviour of the main organic compounds, illustrating the relationships between the structure and the reactivity, starting from the basic concept of functional group. The lessons will be frequently illustrated with examples from other disciplines such as materials science and life sciences.
|
| Aims |
This course mainly aims at providing the basis of organic chemistry required to deal with other more specialized fields.
At the end of their classes, students are expected to be able :
1. To establish relationships between molecular and spatial structures of molecules and some properties, in particular, their reactivity;
2. To predict, understand and explain the expected results of the main types of organic reactions, linking them with their mechanism
|
| Teaching methods |
Lectures and exercises-based learning.
