ORGANIC CHEMISTRY
Interaction of the teacher with the students during and after the end of the lesson.
From the teachings of organic chemistry, the student will learn the fundamentals of the nomenclature, the three-dimensional structure of the chemical and physical properties of organic molecules and acquire the necessary knowledge to interpret and rationalize the organic reactions in terms of reaction mechanisms and the fundamental correlations between structure and reactivity. Finally, the student will be able to predict the course of a reaction also rationalizing the stereochemical aspects.
