Provide an adequate knowledge of the chemistry (synthesis, structure, reactivity) of heterocyclic systems, of high importance both in the biological/pharmacological and industrial/technological fields. Taking inspiration from the behavior of some representative heterocycles, some insights into the involved reaction mechanisms will also be provided.
6 ECTS of lectures (including exercises).
Classifications, nomenclature, properties, reactivity of heterocyclic compounds. Classic and modern synthetic approaches. In particolar, the main heteroaromatic systems will be treated more extensively, while for cycles of small (3 and 4 atoms) or medium (7 and 8) size, only the more important fetures will be highlighted.
Also the forming cycles methodologies will be discussed and classified as cyclizations or cycloadditions, proceeding according to ionic or pericyclic mechanisms.
No particular texts are recommended.
Ricevimento: Every afternoon from Monday to Friday, by appointment, in the study 915 of DCCI.

From October 14, 2024
The exam (oral) will last about one hour, writing on the blackboard and discussing with the appropriated terminology the treated subjects
The exam (oral) will last about one hour, and it will be ascertained the acquisition of nomenclature, terminology, reactivity of compounds treated in this course, as well as the ability to comment an article from the recent literature.
Students who have valid certification of physical or learning disabilities on file with the University and who wish to discuss possible accommodations or other circumstances regarding lectures, coursework and exams, should speak both with the instructor and with Professor Sergio Di Domizio (sergio.didomizio@unige.it), the Department’s disability liaison.
