Course description and aims

This lecture will cover "Organic Process Chemistry," the industrial synthesis of fine chemicals, for students who have taken Organic Chemistry V and VI.

Student learning outcomes

By taking this course, students will master "Organic Process Chemistry," the industrial synthesis of fine chemicals.

Course taught by instructors with work experience

Applicable How instructors' work experience benefits the course
Based on his 10 years of experience in process organic chemistry at a chemical manufacturer, the lectures were organized so that they could be understood even at the undergraduate level. Specifically, after teaching the fundamentals of process organic chemistry, we picked up characteristic processes that have actually been mass-synthesized or industrialized, and arranged the topics so that students can learn them systematically based on the fundamental technologies.

Keywords

Pharmaceutical synthesis, agrochemical synthesis, organic material synthesis, asymmetric synthesis, industrial synthesis, process chemistry, unit operations

Competencies that will be developed

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

Class flow

Proceed according to the lesson plan. Exercises and explanations will be given in the last class to check the level of understanding.
