Application of SATL In Heterocyclic Chemistry: • A course on heterocyclic chemistry using the SATL technique was organized and taught to 3rd year students at Ain Shams University. A portion of the one-semester course (10 lectures, 20 hours) was taught to students during the academic years. • 1999/2000, 2000 / 2001, and 2003 / 2004
Linear VS Systemic Study in Heterocyclic Chemistry: • Linear study in heterocyclic chemistrymeans servay study on the reactivity of the heterocycles to give products in a separate chemical reactions(Alkylation, acylation, Nitration, Sulphonation, formylation, …..). • Systemic study in heterocyclic chemistrymeansservay study on the reactivity of both heterocycles and substituents and their all possible chemical relations.
G Z Reactivity of Reactivity of the Substituents the Nucleus Heteroatom: [(Z) = NH, O, S] Substituents:[(G) = R, - CH2 - X, - X, -CH2 - OH - NH2, - CHO, - COR, - COOH]
Figure 3: summarizes comparative reactivites of the five membered heterocycles as model heterocyclic compounds, and their possible relations.
The diagram (4) represents the reactivity of heterocyclic nucleus, and gives the linear separated chemical relations between (pyrrole, furan, thiophene), and their compounds. • We use heterocyclic chemistry to illustrate, again, how a subject can be organized systemically. SD1 summarizes the comparative reactivities of both heterocyclic nucleus and substituents.
In the systemic diagram (SD1) there are unknown chemical relations (1-7) between heterocyclic compounds. • These relations will be clarified later during the study of pyrrole, furan and thiophene.

The diagram (Fig. 4) represents the reactivity of (pyrrole nucleus), and gives the linear separated chemical relations between pyrrole and its compounds. • We can illustrate the chemical relations in (Fig. 4) systemically by modification of SD1 to SD2(Z = NH):

Systemic Teaching Strategies For Uses Of Heterocycles In Synthesis 1- Heterocyclic derivative to another Hetercyclic derivative: Example:
2- Aliphatic compound to another aliphatic compound via Heterocycle:
Conclusion: • After the experimentation of SATLHC in Egypt we reached to the following conclusions: 1)SATLHC improved the students ability to view (HC) from a more global perspective. 2)SATLHC helps the students to develop their own mental framework at higher-level cognitive processes (application, analysis, and synthesis). 3)SATLHC increases students ability to learn subject matter in a greater context. 4)SATLHC increases the ability of students to think globally.
