Classes are held in Italian. For enrolled students, the teaching material is available on AulaWeb. AIMS AND CONTENT LEARNING OUTCOMES Obiettivo dell'insegnamento è quello di fornire allo studente una visione generale sul comportamento (chimico e chimico-fisico) dei principali gruppi funzionali della chimica organica. Sulla base delle conoscenze così acquisite vengono prese in esame le caratteristiche essenziali (costituzione, preparazione, reattività) delle principali tipologie di materiali organici/polimerici di interesse più specifico nell’ambito dei Beni Culturali (solventi, resine, coloranti, leganti - oli siccativi e tempere -, protettivi, vernici). La comprensione dei fattori che regolano il comportamento di questi materiali è di fondamento per una corretta programmazione ed interpretazione della diagnostica, finalizzata all’uso delle moderne tecniche di conservazione, consolidamento e restauro. AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES Remember the concepts related to atoms, electronegativity and chemical bonds Understand the concepts of polar covalent bonding, hybridization, sigma and pi bond, isomerism, resonance Apply these concepts to the construction of organic molecules, to the identification of their arrangement in the space, to the recognition of the functional groups and to the assignment of the IUPAC name Analyze the organic molecules on the basis of their structure, recognizing their acidity / basicity, nucleophilic / electrophilic character; identify six different types of chemical reactions Evaluate the reactivity of organic molecules based on their structure and the environment in which they are located Create new substances by reaction of simple organic molecules TEACHING METHODS Frontal lessons Laboratory activities SYLLABUS/CONTENT Atoms and molecules.

The written test is generally organized on more open-ended questions with scores which take account of various difficulties, while the oral exam, which can be accessed only after passing the written exam, consists of an interview. Both written and oral tests are based on the program carried out in class to evaluate the achievement of educational goals. The oral examination is always conducted by a commission made up of at least two professors (or in limited cases as a tenured professor and an expert on the subject so designated by CCS) and has a reasonable duration. The Commission, appointed in this way, you can verify with high accuracy to achieve the educational objectives of teaching by putting different questions related to the program actually carried out during the course lessons. When the educational objectives are not achieved, the student is encouraged to better verify his knowledge and possibly to make use of further explanations by contacting the owner of the teacher teaching the course.
