Organic Chemistry A
A.Y. 2020/2021
Learning objectives
Aims of the course are: to improve the knowledge on the structure of organic molecules and of reaction mechanisms; to provide concepts about reactions of great interest in organic synthesis, that are not discussed in basic organic chemistry courses; to improve experimental lab's techniques and practical skills
Expected learning outcomes
The student will acquire skills complementary to those already attained in the field of stereochemistry, in advanced organic synthesis and specific reactions mechanisms and pericyclic reactions.
From the laboratory training he will gain expertise in the execution and work up of sophisticated organic reactions performed under inert atmosphere and with stereochemical aspects.

Prerequisites for admission
Bachelor level Organic Chemistry courses.
Teaching methods
Lessons will be given on Microsoft Teams platform and could be attended by students on the basis of the calendar of the first semester. In addition, lessons will be registered and made available to students on ARIEL platform of the course.
For the laboratory module, the introductory lessons will be delivered using Teams as described above. The lab work will take place in the Fusco Laboratory in the Chemistry Department, from November 23 to December 4. Depending on the number of attendees relative to the allowed occupancy of the laboratory, students will be able to attend 1 or 2 weeks of practice. A video of the lab work will be uploaded on the Ariel platform for those students who will be unable to attend for Covid-related reasons.
