NKEC63 Physical-Organic Chemistry, 7,5 ECTS-points
/FYSIKALISK-ORGANISK KEMI/

Advancement level:
C

Aim:
The course is a continuation of Organic Chemistry 3 and has the intention to give the student a profound knowledge in molecular structure, chemical bonding, quantum chemistry etc. This knowledge is applied in chemical reaction mechanisms and in spectroscopic methods.

Prerequisites:
Attended Physical Chemistry 2 (NKEB33), Organic Chemistry 3 (NKEC53).

Supplementary courses:
NKED73 Organic Synthesis

Course organization:
The theory is taught in lectures, seminaries, lessons and laboratory work.

Course content:
Detailed survey on some central organic reaction mechanisms, giving knowledge on the effect of structure and reaction media on reactivity. Methods to study chemical reaction mechanisms. Symmetry-controlled reactions and stereo chemistry. The Hammett-equation. Two-dimensional NMR-methods.
