Organic Chemistry I 1200-1CHMCHO12
The reactivity as well as preparation methods of organic compounds bearing one functional group will be discussed. The following compounds will be presented:
- hydrocarbons (aliphatic, saturated and unsaturated, aromatic),
- halogenated hydrocarbons
- alcohols and phenols
- ethers
- amine
- aldehydes
- ketones
- carboxylic acids and their derivatives.
For every class of compounds the following are discussed: nomenclature, structure, stereochemistry, basic chemical transformations with reaction mechanisms as well as methods of preparation.

Assessment criteria
Lecture
The written examination evaluating student’s knowledge of methods of preparation as well as the reactivity of organic compounds. Admission to the exam is the completion of the proseminars.
Proseminars
Completion of the proseminar is based on:
1. attendance at classes (maximum of two excused absences are allowed)
2. three partial tests.
One of the tests in which the student was absent, and has an excuse registered in the Dean's Office, can be supplemented in an additional time at the end of the semester.
Persons who obtain at least 80 points from the partial tests (grade 4.5 or 5.0) will be exempt from the exam (with the same grade as from the proseminar).
Persons who do not obtain the required number of 50 points or wish to improve their grade will be able to take revision test on the entire material. The result of the retake test does not exempt you from the exam.
Grading scale:
≥ 50 p. = 3,0;
≥ 60 p. = 3,5;
≥ 70 p. = 4,0;
≥ 80 p. = 4,5;
≥ 90 p. = 5,0.
Practical placement
