Instructor name HATAKEYAMA Takuji (Graduate School of Science Professor)
Outline and Purpose of the Course Students will promote research on synthetic organic chemistry toward "hetero-nanocarbons" in which hetero elements (boron, nitrogen, phosphorus, etc.) are substituted for any carbon in nanocarbons such as graphene, carbon nanotubes, and fullerenes with the goal of deepening the field as an academic discipline.
Course Goals Students will learn the fundamentals of synthetic organic chemistry, organometallic chemistry, and catalytic chemistry through reaction development; structural organic chemistry, typical element chemistry, and analytical chemistry through structural analysis and measurement of physical properties; quantum chemistry, condensed matter chemistry, and photochemistry through materials design and evaluatio
Schedule and Contents Students will tackle one specific theme across these multiple research subjects, which can be broadly classified into the following four categories. (1) Development of tandem hetero-Friedel-Crafts reaction for highly efficient and highly selective introduction of multiple heteroatoms.
(2) Synthesis of hetero-nanocarbon molecules based on the tandem hetero-Friedel-Crafts reaction
(3) Synthesis of hetero-nanocarbons using hetero-nanocarbon molecules as key intermediates
(4) Development of functions of new materials synthesized in (2) and (3), especially applied research in the field of organic electronics
Course Requirements It is recommended that students have taken Organic Chemistry I-III and Chemical Experiment.
Study outside of Class (preparation and review) Read the latest papers on organic chemistry.
