Course Content - Last names A-K
Introduction on the chemical bond and the concept of molecular orbital. Nomenclature, structure and reactivity of the main functional groups and the various classes of organic compounds, their conformational analysis and stereochemistry. At the end, the structure and the properties of the main classes of biologically relevant organic compounds, i.e. sugars, amino acids and peptides, as well as fats, will be dealt with.

Learning Objectives - Last names A-K
Upon completion of this class, students will be able to predict bonding and three-dimensional structure, including chirality of organic compounds. Students will be able to predict the reactivity of specific functional groups, and construct efficient, simple mechanistic pathways for the synthesis of a given compound.
