Aim:
The course gives principles in organic chemistry such as the connection between structure and reactivity of molecules. After passing the course the student is will be able to:
- describe the fundamental theory of molecular structure, kinetics, mechanisms and stereochemistry.
- design and plan strategy of organic synthesis
describe theoretical and practical fundamentals in organic spectroscopy.
- use experimental and practical skills in organic synthesis methodology, and identification and analysis of organic compounds.
