Learning outcomes
The lecture is designed in such a way that the mainly general parts, which are supposed to create the necessary apparatus for understanding the laws of the chemistry of organic compounds, are followed by an overview of individual groups of organic compounds. The aim of the lectures is to create a comprehensive picture of modern organic chemistry and a necessary basis for understanding the processes involved in the synthesis of materials containing organic components. An immediate link is created between this lecture and the exercise.
