Course description and aims
[Summary of the course] This course focuses on the basic topics of organic reactions and organic structural changes triggered by "light". Photo(sunlight)-driven catalytic reactions as well as photo-responsive molecular assemblies are also the subjects of this course. For students at the other undergraduate majors, the course covers the fundamentals of organic chemistry and provides the opportunity to learn advanced science and technology as well as fundamentals in the fields of applied chemistry.
[Aim of the course] Most of organic reactions studied in the lectures of Organic Chemistry I-IV are induced by thermal activation. In contrast, there are many important reactions occurring only upon photo activation, such as biological photosynthesis. Thus, the aim of this course is to facilitate students' understanding of relationships between "organic chemistry" and "light", and the basic topics of historical photoreactions, catalytic photoreactions, and the changes of organic structures and molecular assemblies upon photo-irradiation.
Student learning outcomes
At the end of this course, students will be able to understand and explain the following issues:
(1) Relationships between light and organic reaction.
(2) Historical photoreactions.
(3) The basis and applications of catalytic photoreactions.
(4) Relationships between light and organic structures.
(5) Relationships between light and molecular assemblies (including biosystem).
Keywords
Light, Organic reactions, Catalytic recations, Organic strcuture, Molecular assembly, Biology
Competencies that will be developed
| ✔ Specialist skills | Intercultural skills | Communication skills | Critical thinking skills | Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
Class flow
Lectures will be given in the following order: (1) relationships between light and organic reaction, (2) historical photoreactions, (3) the basis and application of catalytic photoreactions, (4) relationships between light and organic structures, and (5) relationships between light and molecular assemblies (including biosystem). Students' understanding will be checked by practice problems in the last 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.
