529-0233-01LOrganic Synthesis: Methods and Strategies Information 6 credits3GE. M. Carreira
AbstractThe complex relation between structural analysis, methods leading to desired transformations, and insight into reaction mechanisms is exemplified. Relations between retrosynthetic analysis of target structures, synthetic methods and their combination in a synthetic strategy.
ObjectiveExtension and deepening of the knowledge in organic synthesis and the principles of structure and reactivity.
ContentConcepts of the planning of organic synthesis (strategy and tactics), retrosynthetic analysis. Structure-reactivity relation in the context of the synthesis of complex molecules.
