The course in advanced physical organic chemistry gives a deeper understanding of the physical properties of organic molecules as well as organic reaction mechanisms.

The material is divided into nine thematic sessions: chemical bond, acids and bases, carbocations, ionic reactions, stereoelectronic effects, the carbonyl group, radical reactions, pericyclic reactions, and photochemistry. A more complex session finishes the course. An individual project concerning physical organic aspects of the research project is also a part of the course. Each session consists of a number of questions which will be presented orally and written.

Be able to discuss phsyical-organic techniques and methods
Be able to discuss important reaction mechanisms on an advanced level.

Be able to design and evaluate physical organic experiments
Be able to compile and use physical organic data in order to understand reaction mechanisms

Be able to discuss and argue on how to use physical organic data to understand organic reactions.
