CH3315 Structure and Mechanism in Organic Chemistry
Question 1: classify pericyclic processes
Question 2: apply molecular orbital theory in the analysis of organic reactivity
Question 3: describe the underlying physical basis for, and applications of, physical organic chemistry
Question 4: apply retrosynthetic analysis to problems featuring pericyclic processes.
Question 5: propose reaction intermediate(s) and products for pericyclic reactions;
Question 6: determine the outcome of pericyclic processes, including periselectivity, regioselectivity and stereoselectivity
Question 7: propose a reasonable and falsifiable reaction mechanism for a reaction based on physical data and/or MO analysis.
Question 8: evaluate whether a reaction mechanism is reasonable or not through an analysis in terms of frontier molecular orbital theory and through interpretation of kinetic and mechanistic data;
Question 9: critically discuss techniques for acquiring kinetic data
Question 10: retrieve and communicate data, findings and procedures from the literature
Question 11: integrate previously acquired knowledge of reactivity patterns in organic chemistry with experimental and computational data to solve problems of organic reaction mechanisms
Question 12: propose experiments and predict outcomes of experiments designed to falsify proposed reaction mechanisms
