Assessment and permitted materials

Final written exam, 90 min (multiple choice, at least 60% to pass the exam)

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

Part I:
Based on their knowledge already acquired in General and Inorganic Chemistry, the students will recognize the field of Organic Chemistry as area of carbon compounds. They will understand the correlation of functional groups and properties of substances, know about different forms of isomerism, be able to draw molecules using different forms of projection, get acquainted with important reactions in Organic Chemistry and be proficient in the most important reaction mechanisms.

Part II:
The students will be able to
classify natural product that are important for human nutrition and to discuss their mechanisms of action
understand actual as well as optional future values of natural products from a nutritional science perspective.
