Organic Chemistry

Organic compounds are the basis for living organisms. This teaching will describe structure, physio-chemical properties and reactivity of the main classes of organic compounds, with particular emphasis for those important for environment.

At the end of the teaching the student will have acquired: - the capacity to understand the chemical structure and reactivity of organic compounds, and their environmental importance; - the knowledge of the main functional groups; - the knowledge of the fundamental techniques for the identification, separation and purification of organic compounds.
