Organic Chemistry

Education facts

Code: 5KE180

During the course, the relationship between the three-dimensional structure, properties and reactivity of organic molecules are discussed. The course focuses on the mechanisms that operate during organic-chemical reactions to systematize reactivity and choice of reaction conditions. Laboratory exercises provide skills training and the ability to independently plan, perform and evaluate experiments. During the course, IR and NMR spectroscopy are applied to determine the structure of organic compounds.
