Course description and aims

I Students get the rudimentary knowledge of organic chemistry.
II Chemical structure, reactivity, and reaction of organic compounds are summarized by the text book of "McMurry Organic Chemistry, the eighth edition, the third volume".

Student learning outcomes

Functions and properties of organic and polymeric materials are strongly related to the primary structure of molecules and higher-order structures. A flexible molecular design based on knowledge of the organic chemistry is demanded in the development of a variety of functional materials meeting demand properties. Students get the fundamental skills of chemical structures and reactions of biological molecules such as lipid, amino acids, proteins, and chemical structures and properties of synthetic polymers based on a basic concept of the organic chemistry by this lecture.

Keywords

fundamental organic chemistry, chemical structure, reactivity, biological molecules, lipid, amino acid, protein, synthetic polymer

Competencies that will be developed

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

Class flow

The class is carried out along the contents of the textbook. A summary of the previous lecture followed by the main points of the day’s lecture posed as questions are given. A careful commentary while deciphering an exercise in the textbook is added during class.
