Increasingly chemistry is used to enhance or alter the physical properties of solid state materials. Chemistry has enabled technological advances in areas as diverse as textiles, computing, and medicine. This course introduces students to crystalline and amorphous solids, surface and polymer chemistry, and materials characterization. It also covers applications of materials chemistry and certain specialized laboratory techniques. Prerequisite(s): Chemistry 107A or Chemistry/Environmental Studies 107B, Chemistry 108A or Chemistry/Environmental Studies 108B, Chemistry 217, and Physics 107. J. Henry.

3.00 Credits
This course is an overview of physical chemical principles and techniques used in understanding the properties, interactions, and functions of biological molecules. Thermodynamic, kinetic, and statistical mechanical principles are applied to understanding macromolecular assembly processes (i.e., assembly of viruses or ribosomes) and macromolecular interactions involved in gene expression and regulation, DNA replication, and other biological processes. Techniques used in studying protein folding, RNA folding, and enzyme kinetics are presented. Prerequisite(s): Chemistry 108A or Chemistry/Environmental Studies 108B, Physics 107, Mathematics 105 and 106. Alternates with Chemistry 302. [S] [Q] P. Schlax.

3.00 Credits
In this course the utilization of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and mass spectral data for structural analysis is developed. Particular attention is given to the interpretation of proton, carbon-13, and two-dimensional NMR spectra, and to the interpretation of fragmentation patterns in electron-impact mass spectrometry. Theoretical and instrumental aspects of modern NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry are covered. Prerequisite(s): Chemistry 218. [S] T. Wenzel.
