Course content
Typically, the subject involves the synthesis of original organic compounds or their precursors, or materials created from them, or experimental verification of new synthetic procedures for the preparation of known substances, characterizations and evaluation of unpublished properties of organic substances, physico-chemical (mechanistic) studies, etc. In addition to experimental activity, work with scientific literature is also an integral part of the course.

Learning activities and teaching methods
Work with text (with textbook, with book), Laboratory work
Learning outcomes
Improvement of students' laboratory competences through the student's independent experimental work under the supervision of an academician or researcher on a partial research task, based on topics addressed at the ÚOChT. This partial task usually (but not necessarily) forms the basic starting point of the expected diploma thesis.
The student will be able to plan and subsequently carry out the synthesis of original organic compounds and their characterization.
Prerequisites
Fundamental knowledge of organic synthesis, reactivity of organic substances and work with scientific literature.

Assessment methods and criteria
Home assignment evaluation, Student performance assessment

Credit will be given after succesfull laboratory work required by the supervisor.
