Functional Groups: Synthesis and Reactivity
Written exam
The course MH11ES.SR “Functional groups: synthesis and reactivity” addresses the chemistry of carbon compounds through the study of the characteristic reactions of the main functional groups. In this first part of a teaching given over two semesters, the formation and reactivity of the carbon-carbon bonds will be mainly tackled: chemical bonding, hybridization, halogenated derivatives (substitution, elimination, …), alkenes and alkynes (addition, oxidation, …), dienes ([4+2]-cyclo-addition, …), aromatics (electrophilic substitution, reduction, reactivity at the benzyl position, …), alcohols (activation, protection, oxidation, etc.) , amines (formation, protection).
At the end of the MH11ES.SR module, the students will have acquired some essential basics in organic chemistry and will be able to apprehend the realization of simple synthesis. They will be in possession of the necessary tools to understand and analyze the mechanisms and the reactivity of the molecules, allowing them to deepen their knowledge with the MH12ER.SR module.
