Specific learning outcomes of the course At the end of the course, the student will be able to: · describe the electrons migration within an organic molecule (inductive and conjugation effects) as well as during a chemical reaction between two given compounds · establish relations between molecular and spatial structures of organic molecules and some properties, in particular, their reactivity and acidity/basicity ; · predict and explain the expected result for the main types of organic reactions, including their mechanism, catalyst and solvent effect · apply theory to everyday life |
