Course description and aims
The purpose of this course is to acquire the basic knowledge of organic reactions. This course focuses on the reactive functional groups, such as amines and alcohols. After the characteristics and detailed reactions of these functional groups are explained, their roles in biomolecules are introduced.
Student learning outcomes
By the end of this course, students will be able to:
1) Understand the basic mechanism of organic reactions.
2) Know the reactivity of specific functional groups and the synthesis of various organic compounds.
3) Grasp the chemical structure‒property relationship.
4) Apply the basic knowledge about the organic reactions to designing biomolecules.
Keywords
Organic synthesis, reaction mechanism, amines, biomolecules
Competencies that will be developed
| ✔ Specialist skills | Intercultural skills | Communication skills | Critical thinking skills | ✔ Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
Class flow
Every lesson contains not only a lecture but also a drill or application practice. Attendance is taken in every lesson.
Course schedule/Required learning
| Course schedule | Required learning | |

| Class 1 | An Overview of Organic Reactions | Understand the kinds and mechanism of organic reactions. |
| Class 2 | Amines and Heterocycles | Explain the properties of amines. |
| Class 3 | Amines and Heterocycles | Explain the synthesis and reactions of amines. |
| Class 4 | Biomolecules: Carbohydrates | Explain the structures and properties of monosaccharides. |
| Class 5 | Biomolecules: Carbohydrates | Explain the structures and properties of polysaccharides. |
| Class 6 | Biomolecules: Amino Acids, Peptides, and Proteins | Understand the structures and properties of amino acids and explain the synthesis. |
| Class 7 | Biomolecules: Amino Acids, Peptides, and Proteins | Explain the peptide synthesis and the protein structures. |
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.
