1.00 Credits
A one-semester course covering three general areas of biochemistry: biological structures and interactions that stabilize biomolecules; biological reactions; and biological equilibria and energetics. This course is primarily intended for ACS Chemistry or Environmental Chemistry majors and does not satisfy any of the requirements for majors in ACS Biochemistry or Biochemistry, Cellular and Molecular Biology. Students who have taken Course 303 or its equivalent elsewhere cannot receive credit for Course 324. Three lectures, no laboratory. Prerequisite: Course 224 or permission of the instructor. Offered second semester. B. Branchini
-
10.00 Credits
For qualified students this course offers the opportunity for advanced work in areas beyond the basic curriculum in chemistry. A written summary is required. Two options: a. Tutorial Individual Study: Reading and discussion of topics in chemistry. b. An independent laboratory or research project carried out under the direction of a faculty member. Ten hours per week in the laboratory is expected. Offered by individual arrangement. Students must submit a brief description of the proposed project for required department approval at registration.
-
1.00 Credits
Lectures and discussions on current research in chemistry. Presentations by visiting scientists, Connecticut College faculty and student researchers. One hour of credit, marked as pass/not passed. Prerequisite: Course 101 or 103 or 107. Biweekly meetings throughout the semester. These courses may be taken for a maximum of four credits. Offered every semester. Staff
-
3.00 Credits
Lecture topics include infrared, ultraviolet, nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectroscopy as used in the identification of organic compounds. Laboratory work consists of several syntheses, including the preparation of inorganic compounds, and involves techniques for handling reactive materials. Reactions are monitored by chromatographic methods and product structures are confirmed by spectroscopic methods. Three hours lecture; four hours laboratory. Prerequisite: Course 224. Enrollment limited to eight students per laboratory section. B. Branchini
-
3.00 Credits
Inorganic synthetic methods are used to illustrate descriptive chemistry of the elements and their compounds. Techniques include dry box, inert atmosphere and vacuum line manipulations; solid state synthesis; and computational analysis. Physical measurements include kinetic and equilibrium analysis, spectroscopic methods, magnetic susceptibility, conductivity and voltammetry. Lectures discuss the chemistry of the synthesized compounds and the principles underlying their characterization. Three hours lecture; three hours laboratory work. Prerequisite: Course 309, which may be taken concurrently, or permission of the instructor. Course 202 (or 204) is recommended. Enrollment limited to 12 students per laboratory section. Offered second semester 2007-2008 and in alternate years. S. Ching, M. Zimmer, D. Lewis, D. Cullen
-
4.00 Credits
A survey of the various instrumental methods employed in modern chemical analysis and research. Chemical and physical phenomena are related to the design and operating principles of scientific instruments. Practical applications to qualitative, quantitative and structural analysis are examined. Major topics include spectroscopic techniques, electroanalytical chemistry and chromatography. Two lectures; four hours laboratory work. Prerequisite: Course 213, 224, 307 or permission of the instructor. Enrollment limited to 12 students per laboratory section. Offered second semester 2008-2009 and in alternate years. S. Ching and Staff
-
4.00 Credits
Topics will be chosen from bioinorganic chemistry, bioorganic chemistry, protein structure and function, and organic synthesis.
-
4.00 Credits
For students meeting the prerequisites, this course offers the opportunity for advanced work in areas beyond the basic curriculum in chemistry. A written summary is required. Two options: a. Tutorial Individual Study: Reading and discussion of topics in chemistry. b. An independent laboratory or research project carried out under the direction of a faculty member. Ten hours per week in the laboratory is expected. Offered by individual arrangement. Students must submit a brief project proposal for department approval at registration. Prerequisite: Courses 391, 392 or permission of the instructor.

Honors Study
-
4.00 Credits
The chemical, physical and biological principles involved in the discovery, design, synthesis and assessment of several representative classes of medicinal agents; case histories of drug design and development. Three lectures, no laboratory. Prerequisite: Courses 223, 224. Course 224 may be taken concurrently. This course is taught by adjunct members of the faculty employed by Pfizer, Inc., and is coordinated by T. Ovaska. Offered in 2008-2009 and in alternate years. Adjunct Staff
