Recommendations: Successful Passing of General Chemistry,Analytical Chemistry,Organic Chemistry.

Learning outcomes: Lectures:Based on thefirst Module ,Organic Chemistry' the knowledge ofproperties oforganic compounds and their reactivitywill bedeepened and enlarged.

Atthe end ofthe module: students knowthetypical reactions ofvarious classesof

organicsubstancesand theyare able toapplythem. students arefamiliarwith mechanistic and stereochemical

aspectsof important C-C-coupling reactions and specialmodem synthesis methods (e.g. organo-metallic reagents,asymmetricsyntheses).

theycan explain those reactions and applythem.Exercises:

students are abletotransferthe lecture topics according to

corresponding exercise problems; students can formulate and explain the corresponding

reaction equationsand mechanisms.Laboratorywork: students deepened their practical experience;

studentsare introduced intofurthere
