ECTS credit allocation (and other scores): (not available) Basic information on ECTS credits allocation principles:
  • the annual hourly workload of the student’s work required to achieve the expected learning outcomes for a given stage is 1500-1800h, corresponding to 60 ECTS;
  • the student’s weekly hourly workload is 45 h;
  • 1 ECTS point corresponds to 25-30 hours of student work needed to achieve the assumed learning outcomes;
  • weekly student workload necessary to achieve the assumed learning outcomes allows to obtain 1.5 ECTS;
  • work required to pass the course, which has been assigned 3 ECTS, constitutes 10% of the semester student load.

Short description:

The lecture is intended to give participants an understanding of the fundamental principles of modern stereochemistry

Full description:

The course covers the following subjects: molecular geometry and chemical bonding; inter- and intramolecular nonbonding interactions; basic principles of stereoelectronic effects; structure of molecules (constitution, configuration, conformation); stereoisomerism - nature of enantiomers and diastereomers; basic concepts of symmetry operations and point groups; macroscopic consequences of the symmetry and dissymmetry of molecules; relative and absolute configuration; conformational analysis; computer-assisted energy estimation and ab initio calculations; stereochemistry of alkanes; conformation of acyclic molecules; conformation of cyclic molecules; prostereoisomerism, prochirality, heterotopic ligands and faces. Stereogenic centres other than carbon atom. Chirality in molecules without the presence of chiral centre - chiral axis and chiral plane. Chirality in macromolecules. Chiroptical properties and chiroptical methods
