Chemistry

1) Knowledge and understanding: At the end of the course the student will have acquired the retrosynthetic language and will have learned the main synthetic organic chemistry reactions. He will have deepened his knowledge of the reaction mechanism and of their stereochemical behavior. 2) Applying knowledge and understanding: Through laboratory experiences he will put into practice the experimental techniques learned. 3) Making judgements: Through exercises in the classroom and reports to be done at home, the student will acquire the ability to formulate a synthetic route for complex chiral molecules, knowing how to choose the most economical and feasible solutions among the possible ones. 4) Communication skills: The students will be encouraged to make working groups to find the most efficient way to synthesize a molecule that will be assigned to them. 5) Learning skills: The student will also have learned how to do complete bibliographic research independently and where to find information about the molecule he wants to synthesize.
