Prerequisites

Objectives
Understand the concepts underlying structure and binding in organic molecules. Learn the main reaction mechanisms and understand their representation, taking into account the formed intermediates and their stabilities. Know the different families of monofunctional organic compounds with regard to physical properties, intermolecular bonds and specific chemical reactions. Get knowledge about techniques of structural analysis used to identify the organic compounds.

4. Structure, nomenclature, properties, reactivity and typical spectra of the main groups of organic compounds.
4.1 Alcohols, phenols and ethers. Substitution and eliminatio nreactions. 4.2 Amines. Hoffmann elimination. 4.3 Aldehydes and ketones. Addition and substitution reactions. Keto-enolic tautomerism. 4.4 Carboxylic acids and derived functions. Nucleophilic substitution by addition-elimination.
5. Basic principles of organic compounds structural analysis - FTIR, MS and NMR.
Practical program
TP1. Separation of vegetable pigments by chromatography.
TP2. Study of the main functional groups reactions.
TP3. Synthesis of acetylsalicylic acid.
TP4. Synthesis of tribromophenol.
TP5. Purification techniques: recrystallization of acetylsalicylic acid and tribromophenol.

Evaluation Methodology
A - two partial theoretical tests, A1 and A2, A = 0,5*A1 + 0,5*A2; (A1 and A2 from 0 to 20 val.)
B - completion of all laboratory work and delivery of the laboratory notebook (CL) and a written practical test (PL); B = 0,5*CL + 0,5*TP;
C - final theoretical exam.
Final continuous evaluation - 0.6*A + 0.4*B
Final exam evaluation -
0.6*C + 0.4*B
The practical evaluation (B) is valid for 3 consecutive years.
The students are approved with a final classification equal to or greater than 10 marks.
