Fundamentals of organic chemistry 0600-S1-ChK-COp
Lecture:
The lecture discusses issues related to the historical development of organic chemistry, the division of organic compounds based on characteristic functional groups, forms of writing of organic compounds, common and systematic nomenclature. It presents the structure of chemical bonds in organic compounds, structure, types of hybridization, classification of bonds, spatial structure of molecules and types of organic reactions. Discusses types of isomerism of organic compounds by division into constitutive isomerism: chain, substituent positions, functional groups, and conformational, geometric and optical stereoisomers. Presents CIP rules. Cycloalkanes, alkenes, alkyne, dienes, aromatics, alkyl halides, alcohols, ethers, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids and their derivatives, amines and heterocyclic compounds are discussed. Nomenclature, synthesis methods, characteristic reactions, basic reaction mechanisms (for a given group of compounds, free radical, nucleophilic, electrophilic, elimination or addition reactions) are presented.
Lab:
Within the laboratory a student acquires basic laboratory techniques in the field of isolation, purification and organic synthesis. During the course are learn the practical aspects of basic transformations in the field of organic chemistry: SN1 and SN2 nucleophilic substitution, elimination reaction and substitution in the aromatic ring.
Exercises:
The exercises include issues related to writing the structures of organic compounds, terminology, types of hybridization, classification of bonds, types of isomerism of organic compounds, essential reactions and mechanisms discussed during the lecture. They are conducted in the form of solving given problems.
