  Advancement level (G1, G2, A): A

Aim:
The aim of the course is to give advanced knowledge in modern organic synthesis:
  • Synthesis design
  • Protecting groups
  • Functional group transformations
  • Formation of carbon-carbon bonds via enolates and organometallic reagents
  • Formation of carbon-carbon doublebounds
  • Synthesis of carbocyclic systems
  • Total synthesis


Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
Approved Organic Synthesis

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.

Organisation:
The education includes lectures and seminars.

Course contents:
The course consists of advanced methods in organig synthesis including protecting groups, transformations of functional groups and formation of carbon-carbon bonds. The advanced knowledge will be applied on total synthesis from recent publications in organic chemistry journals.
