| Course frequency | Every spring sem. |
| Lecturers | Christof Sparr (christof.sparr@unibas.ch, Assessor) |
| Content | Formation of strategic bonds in organic synthesis: A. Formation of C-C bonds via organometallics, enolates and equivalents, and pericyclic reactions B. Formation of double and triple CC bonds from carbonyl compounds and by metathesis reactions C. Formation of C-O and C-N bonds by cycloadditions and Pd catalysis A particular emphasis will be made on selective (including stereoselective) reactions. |
| Learning objectives | - Acquire the most important methods for the construction of bonds in organic molecules. - Learn modern methods employing organometallics and transition-metal catalysts. - Strengthen the knowledge of the main concepts of reactivity and selectivity, including stereoselectivity models. - Be able to apply the learnt tools and concepts to construct complex organic molecules. |
| Bibliography | The following textbooks are recommended: - Organic Chemistry, 2nd Edition (Clayden, Greeves, Warren), Oxford University Press; - Organotransition Metal Chemistry (Hartwig), University Science Books. |
