2. LEARNING OUTCOMES

Learning Outcomes

Upon successful completion of this course, the enrolled students will be gaining the following knowledge, skills and competences;

• Understand the role of intermediates in the mechanism of chemical reactions
• Became more familiar with the mechanisms of substitution and elimination chemical reactions – reaction order
• Identify, distinguish and name different organic compounds
• Use basic knowledge of principles of organic chemistry to apply the properties of organic compounds to various classes of materials, such as petroleum products, insecticides, hospital wastes etc.
• Use the advanced spectroscopy methods such as UV, IR, NMR, MS etc. in order to find out the structure of organic compounds

In the context of this course, the enrolled students will be acquiring knowledge and useful skills to evaluate the use of organic compounds in research fields in order to produce environmental friendly and energetic efficient materials adhering to the principles of sustainable development.
