| Aim: The course gives fundamentals of organic chemistry essential for further studies in the field of natural sciences. The course should give the student knowledge about the chemistry of carbon compounds, its structure related to chemical and physical properties. The student will, furthermore, learn more about organic chemical reactions, as well as skills in basic organic analysis and laboratory technology. |
||||
| Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered) General Chemistry (NKEA26), Organic Chemistry 1 (NKEA27) and Biochemistry 1 (NKEA28). Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding. |
||||
| Supplementary courses: NKEC44 Preperative Organic Chemistry and NKEC52 Biochemistry 2 |
||||
| Organisation: The theoretical part consists mainly of lectures. The lessons include problem solving towards reaction mechanisms. The experimental part consists of organic reactions and synthesis correlated to the theory. |
||||
| Course contents: The course explains the chemical and physical properties of organic compounds. Chemical bonds, functional groups, nomenclature and stereochemistry are covered. Chemical reactions such as substitution, elimination, addition, oxidation and reduction are treated in the aspect of functional groups. The study of these reactions include reaction mechanisms, reactive intermediates, energy profiles and kinetics. Organic spectroscopy, primary Infrared and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, carbohydrates and other natural products are studied along with biological applications. Knowledge of safety risks are included. The laboratory course give the student practical skills in organic synthesis, organic reactions and modern analytical and separation methods, such as NMR and chromatography. |
