Course description and aims

This course focuses on the electrode process of organic compounds to understand organic/material synthesis. Students will learn fundamental methods, general reaction mechanism and advanced procedures of organic electrode processes.

Student learning outcomes

At the end of this course, students will be able to:
1) Have an understanding of the electron-transfer behavior of organic compounds.
2) Understand the synthetic and material applications of electrogenerated species.

Keywords

Organic electrosynthesis, Electron transfer, Oxidation and reduction, Electrogenerated species, Electropolymerization

Competencies that will be developed

✔ Specialist skills Intercultural skills Communication skills Critical thinking skills ✔ Practical and/or problem-solving skills

Class flow

At the end of class, students are given exercise problems to solve.
