Goals

The next lecture of Organic photochemistry will take place in the academic year 2023/2024, in Februeray 2024.

Table of contents

1. Basic principles of photochemistry

 

2. Photochemical reactions : . propriétés rédox des états excités . thermodynamique des réactions photo-rédox . théories cinétiques modernes du transfert d'électron

3 - Introduction à la catalyse photoredox : applications en synthèse organique (formation de liaisons carbone-carbone et carbone-hétéroatome, catalyse duale...)

4 - Mechanistic aspects of photocatalytic reactions

Exercices

An inverted (flipped classroom) will take place and every student will have the opportunity to make a short presentation/flash talk of 5 minutes about a recent scientific article of her/his choice dealing with Organic Photochemistry.

Teaching methods

All lectures during this course will be given in English, and will combine slides and writings on the whiteboard. A printed support will be provided to the students

Assessment method

The final exam is a writen examen of 2 hours, during which a recent research article related to one of the six chapters described below will be analyzed by the students in the first part. The next part of the exam will focus on general questions about the whole course of Organic Photochemistry.

Sources, references and any support material

All lectures and presentations will be available online on Webcampus
