This course seeks to foster an interest in the study of natural products of vegetable origin, providing students with the necessary information to comprehend the extraction, purification, and identification processes of primary and secondary metabolites in plants, and to relate the chemical structure of diverse compounds and their biological activity. The methodology used allows students to determine the composition of several of these compounds and their possible biosynthetic routes.

To have students successfully carry out quantum mechanics calculations in order to study the structure of molecules and mechanisms in chemical reactions. This course seeks to familiarize students with the computer software most commonly used today by researchers. Course content will include: molecular orbital methods, the Hartree-Fock-Roothaan theory , calculation with small molecules such as water, methane, ammonia, etc., energy calculations in larger molecules, organic molecules with 10-20 carbon atoms, heteroatoms, the theory of potential energy surface, optimization of geometries, recovery of nuclear movement in light of the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, vibrational analysis, supermolecules and chemical reactivity, the transition state theory, the study of reaction mechanisms using quantum mechanical methods, CI and DFT methods.

This course students are introduced to the principles of Quantum Theory. These should help in understanding contemporary atomic and molecular structure and chemical reactivity theories. Following this, students are presented the hydrogen atom and multielectronic atom theories, so that they may assimilate basic concepts and understand the different approaches taken in the practical use of these concepts. Students will also learn to calculate the fundamental properties of molecules according to quantum theory, explore ideas regarding chemical bonds and molecular structure, and the main approaches in this area.

The course intends for students to identify the two-way connection that has taken place throughout history, between some of the important ideas of mankind and the thinking process regarding the organization of the material world and the transformations of matter, which were the origins of the chemical science. Some fundamental ideas of chemistry such as atomism were closely related to the construction of the individualistic image of society at the beginning of modernity. This was also true at many other moments. The efforts to build precise grammar in the times of the French Revolution that were bound to the origins of modern linguistics, had a very clear reflection in the building of a precise grammar to designate the chemical compounds, and the algebra of the chemical reactions. As a result, modern chemistry was born with Lavoisier, very similar to the linguistic algebras. The idea of purification, which originated in chemistry, permeates many metaphysical concepts, like, more recently, the ideas of structure, shape and function, which also originated in chemistry, support our understanding of the genetic code.
