Chimica Organica I
About this Course
Gli studenti verranno introdotti allo studio della chimica dei composti organici attraverso la conoscenza della nomenclatura, della struttura e della reattività dei principali gruppi funzionali. In particolare verrà affrontato lo studio della struttura e della reattività di composti organici cominciando dagli idrocarburi (alcani, cicloalcani, alcheni e alchini) per finire ai composti organici contenenti eteroatomi come gli alcoli, gli epossidi e le ammine. Una parte del corso riguarderà lo studio dei sistemi aromatici (benzene e derivati) e coniugati (dieni). Rilievo verrà dato allo studio dei meccanismi di reazione attraverso i quali possono essere razionalizzate le trasformazioni dei composti organici e dei principi fondamentali della stereochimica organica. Learners will be introduced to the chemistry of organic compounds, looking at nomenclature, structure and reactivity of the main functional groups. The main focus will be on the structure and reactivity of organic compounds, especially the hydrocarbons (alkanes, cycloalkanes, alkenes and alkynes) and the organic compounds containing heteroatoms, like alcohols, epoxides and ammines. Part of the course will focus on aromatic systems (benzines and derivatives) and conjugates (dienes). The course will also highlight those reaction mechanisms which illustrate the transformation of organic compounds and the basic principles of organic stereochemistry.Created by: Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II
