Fundamentals and experimental development of common reactions in
organic synthesis.

Laboratory experiments related to different types of organic
reactions (substitution, oxidation, reduction, esterification,
polymerization,...), through which the basic operations used in an
organic chemistry laboratory are exemplified, in addition to
experiences of separation of organic compounds on a preparative
scale. Tutoring of academic activities of resolution of exercises
on aspects related to the interconversion of functional groups, or
of elaboration of a laboratory script on an experiment not carried
out in class, or elaboration of a laboratory report on an
experiment that has been carried out.

Experiments to be developed: 1. Synthesis of n-bromobutane.
2. Synthesis of fluorenone. 3. Synthesis of diphenylmethanol.
Synthesis of ethyl acetate. 5. 5. Synthesis of cinnamic acid.
Polymer chemistry. Resolution of alpha-phenylethylamine. 8. Column
chromatography.

Improve environmental education and awareness.

In the first laboratory session, the teacher will make an introduction to the subject (objectives, contents, rules of operation, evaluation system,...), before starting the corresponding practical activity. At the beginning of each laboratory session, the teacher will dedicate some time to explain and clarify doubts about the experience to be developed during the session. Throughout the course, the teacher will propose a series of exercises to be solved in the period of "autonomous work hours". Alternatively, other activities will be proposed. The teaching staff will guide the students in the preparation of these academic activities during the laboratory sessions or in tutorial hours. The last laboratory session will be devoted to a theoretical-practical test to evaluate part of the competences acquired by the students.

Students with special educational needs should contact the Student Attention Service (Servicio de Atención y Ayudas al Estudiante) in order to receive the appropriate academic support

Ordinary examination

(i) Attendance to laboratory classes and good performance of experiments: 10%. (ii) Evaluation of the written report on the work developed during the course: 15%. (iii) Implementation of a proposed academic activity: 10%. (iv) Performance of a new experiment proposed by the professor using a short recipe and evaluation of the corresponding written report: 65%.

Extraordinary examination:

Students may choose for the extraordinary exam one of the following options:

(A) Students must perform a new experiment proposed by the teacher using a brief procedure, and submit the corresponding written report. It will represent 65% of the final grade. The remaining 35% comes from sections i-iii previously evaluated.

(B) Students must perform a new experiment proposed by the professor, and submit the corresponding written report. It will represent 100% of the final grade.

Taking into account the number of students enrolled in this subject in past courses (around 45) and the number of laboratory groups scheduled (3) in the POD of the academic year 2020-21, it is probable that each group will contain about 15 students. It means that the limited capacity of the Organic Chemistry teaching laboratory will surely be exceeded. This means that, in a mixed scenario, will be necessary to divide each laboratory group into 2 small groups, in order to comply with safety measures and guarantee the sanitary guidelines issued by the competent authorities. In this case, each small group will attend in person the laboratory teaching for the half of the time, approximately, and will receive online the rest of credits, trying to ensure the students achieve the skills of the subject.

TEACHING METHODOLOGY AND TRAINING ACTIVITIES

-A2-Classes in laboratory groups (58 h): Each small group will receive classes in the laboratory for 7 sessions of 4 hours each. The explanations about the rest of the subject's content will be given online to the entire group of 15 students.

-A3-Tutorial classes (2 h): They will be taught by tele-teaching to the group of 15 students.

EVALUATION SYSTEM

-In the ordinary call II, the evaluation system included in the detailed information in section 7 of this teaching guide will be followed, keeping the percentages indicated therein. Part of this percentage, especially for those aspects of the evaluation related to a continuous evaluation, will be adjusted taking into account what is indicated in the non-face-to-face scenario (see below). The final exam for each subgroup will be achieved in person during one of the last two laboratory sessions.

-In the extraordinary call II (or successive calls) the evaluation system included in the detailed information in section 7 of this teaching guide will be followed.

RESOURCES

For telematic actions, the technical resources provided by the University will be used, including the ILIAS platform or the set of tools included in Google Suite, as well as electronic bibliographic resources to avoid the physical presence of students in the library. On the part of the students, communication infrastructure through the Internet will be necessary (computer, webcam, microphone and Internet access; alternatively, a smartphone can be used).

In the mixed scenario, where appropriate, the teaching staff involved in teaching, reserves the right not to give consent for the capture, publication, retransmission or reproduction of their speech, image, voice and professorship explanations, in the exercise of his teaching functions, within the scope of the University of Jaén.

TEACHING METHODOLOGY AND TRAINING ACTIVITIES

-A2-Classes in laboratory groups (58 h): Each lecturer will teach the classes by tele-teaching to its group of 15 students. The activities corresponding to M9 (Laboratories) will be replaced by online explanations on the fundamentals and experimental procedures of each experiment of the contents, for which it will be very helpful to watch videos on laboratory techniques and experiences very similar to those scheduled, and later remarks. In relation to M7 (Seminars), a session will be achieved to the explanation and clarification of doubts about the foundation and management in the laboratory of the techniques that should have been used in the face-to-face classes (distillation, recrystallization, thin layer chromatography,...) . Another session will also be devoted to the explanation by the students of the previously directed academic activity carried out in their autonomous work time.

-A3-Tutorial classes (2 h): They will be taught by tele-teaching to the group of 15 students.

 EVALUATION SYSTEM

-In the ordinary call II the evaluation system included in the detailed information in section 7 of this teaching guide will be followed, keeping the percentages indicated therein. In the Attendance and/or participation in face-to-face and/or virtual activities (10%) section, the teachers will check the attendance of their students to class and interest in the contents that are being explained by asking questions at random throughout each session. The daily achievement of the students will also be evaluated taking into account the fulfillment of the delivery deadlines of the laboratory notebook as well as their contribution to the created Forum. In the Theoretical concepts section of the subject (30%), the teachers will evaluate two aspects: (a) daily preparation by each student of the laboratory notebook (15% of the final grade); (b) academically directed activity (15% of the final grade). In the section Laboratory/field/TIC classes (60%), the teachers will evaluate the answers of the students in an online written exam about the theoretical and experimental aspects explained in class (30% of the final grade), as well as the answers in an oral examination by videoconference (30% of the final grade).

-In the extraordinary call II (or successive calls), the suspended students will have the possibility of being evaluated by one of the following modalities: (A) The suspended students must take an online written exam on the theoretical and experimental aspects explained in class, as well as an oral exam, both by videoconference, whose grade (60% of the final grade) will be weighted average with the different sections previously evaluated. (B) The suspended students must take an online written exam on the theoretical and experimental aspects explained in class, as well as an oral exam, both by videoconference, whose grade will constitute 100% of the final grade.

In both modalities, it must be taken into account that class attendance is compulsory, so suspended students must have previously attended them in order to be able to present themselves at this extraordinary and subsequent calls.
