LEARNING OUTCOMES
Student will have a deeper understanding on reaction mechanisms and reasons for reactivity of aromatic compounds. Student can recognize reactions for the synthesis and modification of aromatics and heteroaromatics. Student will be familiar with most common heterocycles, their properties, reactivity and synthesis. (The basic understanding about determining reaction mechanisms)
