organic chemistry, physical chemistry - Course Enrolment Limitations
- The course is also offered to the students of the fields other than those the course is directly associated with.
- fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
- there are 14 fields of study the course is directly associated with, display
- Course objectives
- This course is a logical counterpart of the course of Structure and Reactivity. In the end of this course, the student will be able to understand the details of the mechanisms of chemical transformations, which are studied using chemical and physical tools. Knowledge of elemental steps of chemical transformations and reactive intermediates will help the student to understand the scientific literature in the corresponding field and interpret the results from the experimental and theoretical studies.
