This article examines the application of artificial intelligence (AI) technology in the development of intelligent organic chemistry courses, using the construction of the Tröger base (TB) knowledge platform as a case study. The research is conducted on the Superstar intelligent education platform. By comprehensively incorporating AI technology, an intelligent course system has been established, encompassing a structured knowledge graph, personalized learning pathways, and AI-assisted teaching support. The TB knowledge platform systematically integrates key aspects such as its discovery history, structural characteristics, and synthesis methods. Through cross-course knowledge associations and structured learning paths, it facilitates the establishment of a coherent knowledge framework for students, thereby enhancing knowledge consolidation and depth. Furthermore, the platform introduces cutting-edge advances in asymmetric synthesis and functional development of TB derivatives, broadening students’ academic perspectives. By leveraging real-time learning analytics to enable precise teaching interventions, this intelligent course effectively fosters the holistic development of students’ core competencies and comprehensive skills.
