Course description and aims
The course is designed to understand stereoelectronic effects to understand general reactivity of organic compounds and stereoselectivity in organic reactions.
Student learning outcomes
Students will able to explain basic facts related to the stereochemistry of organic compounds and the stereoselectivity of reactions such as the stereoelectronic effect and molecular orbital theory.
Keywords
stereoelectronic effect, stereochemistry and conformation of organic compounds
Competencies that will be developed
| ✔ Specialist skills | Intercultural skills | Communication skills | Critical thinking skills | Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
Class flow
Most course contents and topics are given online.
Course schedule/Required learning
| Course schedule | Required learning | |
|---|---|---|
| Class 1 | Stereoelectronic effects: Felkin–Anh model, Cieplak model, Bürgi–Dunitz trajectory | Exercise problems might be given in this class. |
| Class 2 | Stereoelectronic effects: conformation and reactivity of cyclohexane derivative, A-value | Exercise problems might be given in this class. |
| Class 3 | Stereoelectronic effects: anomeric effect | Exercise problems might be given in this class. |
| Class 4 | Stereoelectronic effects: Gauche effect | Exercise problems might be given in this class. |
| Class 5 | Stereoelectronic effects: Baldwin's rule | Exercise problems might be given in this class. |
| Class 6 | Stereoelectronic effects: Bredt rule, reaction of small ring-sized compounds | Exercise problems might be given in this class. |
| Class 7 | Stereoelectronic effects: other topics and exercise problems | Exercise problems might be given in this class. |
Out-of-Class Study Time (Preparation and Review)
To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.
Textbook(s)
None
Reference books, course materials, etc.
For stereoelectronic effects
1) Stereoelectronic Effects, A. J. Kirby, Oxford University Press
2) Stereochemistry in Organic Compounds, E. L. Eliel and S. H. Wilen, Wiley;
Assessment criteria and methods
Students’ course scores are based on final exams, which will be held on-site (but, it depends on the situation at that moment and may be changed to a different method, e.g., an online exam.). Exercise problems and/or reporting assignments will also be considered.
