General objectives
As general objective, it is intended that the students acquire the right skills to know and relate the structure, properties, reactivity, and applications of main-group and transition-metal derived organometallic compounds in organic synthesis.
On the other hand, this course is intended to acquire skills in the synthesis and manipulation of organometallic compounds as well as in the use of appropriate technique for the study and characterization of these compounds.
Specific objectives
1. Recognize and classify the different types of main-group and transition-metal derived organometallic compounds.
2. Propose methods to prepare main-group and transition-metal derived organometallic compounds.
3. Know about the stabilty and reactivity (stoichiometric and catalytic) of the various types of organometallic compounds.
4. Apply the appropriate characterization technique to the analysis of organometallic compounds.
5. Know and demonstrate the utility of the organometallic compounds to the synthesis of drugs, especially by catalytic methods.
