Università Roma Tre

Learning Objectives The course is based on the study of the nomenclature, reactivity and preparation of organic compounds in general and heterocyclic compounds in particular, with continuous reference to the physico-chemical properties for pharmaceutical applications The ability to recognize the functional groups, the understanding of the reaction mechanisms and the critical evaluation of the stereochemical aspects represent the main aims of the course.
The primary learning outcomes will be:
- knowledge and understanding of the reactivity of organic molecules such as acids, bases, electrophiles and nucleophiles;
- knowledge of the different types of chemical reactions;
- the ability to understand and critically discuss the mechanism of reactions;
- the ability to predict and critically discuss the stereochemistry of reaction products
- - ability in designing organic compounds from the molecular structures to the three-dimensional representations.
