KD2390 Selective Organic Synthesis
KTH Royal Institute of Technology
At least 150 credits from grades 1, 2 and 3 of which at least 110 credits from years 1 and 2, and bachelor's work must be completed, within a programme that includes:
75 university credits (hp) in chemistry or chemical engineering, 20 university credits (hp) in mathematics and 9 university credits (hp) in computer science or corresponding.
- Fundamental concepts in chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivity
- Synthetic strategy and principles for selective, in particular stereoselective, chemical transformations
- Transition metal catalysis
- Frontier orbital-controlled reactions
- Retrosynthetic analysis
- Advanced organic synthesis
After passing the course the student should be able to:
- Explain basic chemo-, regio-, and stereoselective concepts and apply these in synthesis, as well as construct reactions pathways of complex organic compounds using retrosynthetic analysis.
- Apply synthesis methodology to perform advanced organic synthesis.
