The aims of this course is to transmit to the student a good and solid grounding in the basic principles of organic chemistry through study of the structure-function relationships of organic compounds, the chemistry of functional groups, and reactions of organic compounds, which are required for the successful completion of other courses of general background, such as pharmaceutical chemistry, pharmacology and biochemistry
Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to know the structure and nomenclature of the principal functional groups of organic compounds, their chemistry and reactivity.
At the end of the course the students will:
The lectures for this course will be a combination of classic blackboard lectures and PowerPoint.
Should teaching be carried out in mixed mode or remotely, it may be necessary to introduce changes, in line with the planned programme .
In case of students with disabilities and/or SLD, in accordance with the Italian Law (170/2010), it is possible to adapt assessment and study methods, without modifying learning objectives; this support includes dispensatory measures and compensatory tools. To request the service, the student must inform professor at the beginning of the course or at least 30 days before the exam.
Furthermore, it is possible to contact Prof. Teresa Musumenci, CInAP (Centro per l’Integrazione Attiva e Partecipata - Servizi per le Disabilità e/o DSA) referent teacher of our Department.
