Description

This course is a reminder of the main definitions of organic chemistry, including knowing the names of the main functions, naming simple molecules, representing molecules in space and understanding the reactivity of structures (inductive effects, mesomers and thermodynamic and kinetic aspects). Finally, the different categories of solvent will be presented, along with their main properties.
