Course description and aims
[Outline] In this course, after learning about the basic principles and research methods for electrode reactions of organic compounds, students will study electrode reaction theory and electrosynthesis theory that leverages the special characteristics of electrode reactions. The instructor will also present examples of new techniques and industrialization processes in organic electrochemistry.
[Goals] By studying the electrode reactions of organic compounds, students will deepen their understanding of molecular transformations and material synthesis from electrical energy, as well as the interface reactions of energy devices.
Student learning outcomes
At the end of this course, students will be able to:
1) Explain the electron-transfer behavior of organic compounds.
2) Have an understanding of the synthetic and material applications of electrogenerated species.
Keywords
Organic electrosynthesis, Electron transfer, Oxidation and reduction, Electrogenerated species, Electropolymerization
Competencies that will be developed
| ✔ Specialist skills | Intercultural skills | Communication skills | Critical thinking skills | ✔ Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
Class flow
At the end of class, students are given exercise problems to solve.
