Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences
At the end of the course each student should be able to:
• discuss the bonding properties of carbon which cause it to be present in such a large number and variety of important compounds.
• explain the relationship between structure and physical and chemical properties and to make predictions concerning these properties.
• explain the relationship of chemistry in general and organic in specific to the rest of science.
• explain the important role of organic chemistry in life, both biological and economical

Summary
The course follows the course of Organic and Macromolecular Chemistry. After summarizing the basic knowledge about the structure, properties and reactivity of organic substances follows by lectures on modern methods in organic synthesis, identification and structural studies of organic compounds. Further are included chapters about technically and biologicaly the most important organic substances.
