Anotace

The course Chemical transformations provides an introduction to the general principles of chemical reactivity in
the context of modern multidisciplinary science. After the general introduction, the students will get familiar with the
basic concepts of inorganic, organic, organometallic, and polymer chemistry on the basis of general reactivity
concepts rather than memorizing particular reactions. Finally, one lecture will be devoted to the chemical
understanding of natural processes, providing an essential introduction to biochemistry and molecular biology.
Overall, the course will focus on overlaps within different areas of chemistry and between chemistry and other
natural sciences, particularly physics and biological sciences.
The course is supplemented by a practical workshop.

Požadavky ke zkoušce

• For each lecture, the students will be provided with study materials to be reviewed before the particular lecture/workshop.

• The final mark is based on the oral examination (80%) and the results of tests during the course (20%). The oral examination takes place during the examination period, and students must first obtain credit for the workshop. The credit for the workshop is based on two tests (midterm and final, each 50%).
