Course description |
a. Aim: Many useful bioactive and functional organic compounds are known. In order to understand the role of these compounds and synthesize complex organic molecules, we need to study the reactivity of organic molecules. The aim of this course is to summarize organic reactions from the perspective of reaction mechanism, and learn the application of organic reactions to organic synthesis. b. Outline: A variety of organic reactions are classified in to several reaction patterns. In this lecture, first how to understand organic reactions is expounded. Next the classification of organic reactions by their patterns and their application to organic synthesis are discussed. |
Expected Learning |
To understand the characteristic features of each organic reaction and how they can be employed for organic synthesis. |
Course schedule |
1.-3. Pericyclic reactions: Pericyclic reactions, concerted reactions, electrocyclic reactions, cycloaddition reactions, and sigmatropic reactions are explained on the basis of frontier orbital theory. 4. Retrosynthesis: Concept of retrosynthesis, which is useful for multi-step synthesis, is expounded. 5.-6. Introduction of substituents to aromatic nuclei by electrophilic aromatic substitution: Reactivity and orientation of substituted benzenes, order of functional group transformations, and introduction and removal of activation and protecting groups are explained. 6.-7. Preparation and alkylation of carbanions: Classification of carbanions and their preparation, alkylation of organocopper reagents, acetylides, and active methylen compounds are discussed. 8. Midterm examination 9.-10. Aldol-type reactions and acylation: Application of aldol-type reactions, such as the Claisen-Schmidt reaction and Perkin condensation, and acylation such as the Claisen condensation are explained. 10.-11. 1,4-Addition of carbanions: The Michael reaction, 1,4-addition of organocopper reagents and enamines are expounded. Application of these reactions to the Robinson annulations is also discussed. 12.-13. Construction of carbocycles: Irreversible reactions for the preparation of three- and four-membered rings and reversible reactions for the preparation of five- and six-membered rings are explained. 13.-14. Analysis of total synthetic schemes: Analysis of total synthetic schemes will lead to study how a variety of organic synthetic methods are applied. 15. Final examination |
