    • Introduction to the course

      Organic chemistry is a class of chemistry devoted to the study of carbon and its combinations : the structures, properties, reactions and preparation of compounds containing carbon.

      • General objectives


        At the outcome of this course, the student's targeted skills are as follows :


        -  In terms of knowledge :

        •  Identify and name the different families of organic compounds, including alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, alcohols, ethers, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, amines and amides.
        •  Use IUPAC naming  rules to correctly name complex organic molecules.
        •  Explain common reaction mechanisms such as substitution, addition, elimination reactions, and molecular rearrangements.

        - In terms of practical skills: :

        •  Produce mechanisms for obtaining different functions and the main reactions encountered in organic chemistry.
        •  Carry out simple organic syntheses in the laboratory using appropriate techniques.

        - In terms of attitudes/professional behavior :

        • Evaluate the experimental methods used, including the responsibl management of chemicals and waste, and compliance with safety protocols.

        • Pre-requisites




          To follow this course, students are recommended to know :

          •  Basic knowledge of carbon and chemical bonding.
          •  Fundamental concepts of chemistry, such as functional groups and acid-base reactions.
          •  Basic concepts of thermodynamics, chemical kinetics and atomic structure.
