  • Chemistry 334s: Advanced Inorganic Chemistry

    3.00 Credits
    Mount Holyoke College

    The implications of molecular symmetry as expressed in the language of group theory are explored in some depth. Group theory provides the context for a discussion of the structural and spectroscopic properties of inorganic compounds, particularly those of the transition metals. Does not meet a distribution requirement D. Cotter Prereq. permission of instructor; corequisite Chemistry 325; offered every other year; 4 credits

  • Chemistry 336s: Organic Synthesis

    3.00 Credits
    Mount Holyoke College

    This course emphasizes recent developments in synthetic organic chemistry and deals with general synthetic methods and specific examples of natural product synthesis. It covers such topics as new methods of oxidation and reduction, stereospecific olefin formation, ring-forming reactions, and methods of carbon- carbon bond formation. The application of these reactions to the synthesis of naturally occurring compounds is examined. A general strategy for the synthesis of complex molecules is also presented.

  • Chemistry 337f: Physical Organic Chemistry

    3.00 Credits
    Mount Holyoke College

    An introduction to the concepts and methods of physical organic chemistry. Examination of reaction mechanisms and the experimental results that support these mechanisms. Topics include structure and reactivity, reaction kinetics, mechanism determinations, andWoodward-Hoffman Rules. Does not meet a distribution requirement S. Browne Prereq.

  • Chemistry 338f: Organic Chemistry III

    3.00 Credits
    Mount Holyoke College

    An elective sequel to Organic Chemistry II, this course will build directly upon the standard organic chemistry sequence to add both depth of understanding and breadth of application. The course will draw heavily from the reaction classes covered in the earlier courses and add conceptual frameworks to support discussion of rearrangements of carbon skeletons, migrations to electron-deficient centers, the formation and reactions of carbenes, and symmetry control of electrocyclic processes. Recognizing that a key goal of contemporary organic chemistry is the preparation of new carbon frameworks, a brief introduction to the use of retrosynthetic analysis will also be included. Does not meet a distribution requirement D. Hamilton Prereq. Chemistry 302, Organic Chemistry II; 4 credits

  • Chemistry 343s: Chemistry of DNA

    3.00 Credits
    Mount Holyoke College

    (Speaking-intensive course) This advancedlevel seminar will focus on the molecular properties of DNA. Using as sources a graduate- level text and readings from the primary literature, the class will discuss a variety of current topics in the research community, including the binding of proteins and small molecules to DNA, the covalent modification of DNA by mutagenic agents, and the dynamic nature of DNA across timescales. Critical analysis of experimental design and conclusions from data will be encouraged. Students will be evaluated based on participation in discussions, oral presentations, and an original research proposal. Does not meet a distribution requirement M. Nunez Prereq. Chemistry 302 and one additional 300-level chemistry course; 4 credits

  • Chemistry 345fs: Physical Biochemistry

    3.00 Credits
    Mount Holyoke College

    This course introduces the fields of biophysical chemistry and molecular biophysics, where biological systems are probed and described by physical techniques and models. Topics will include the physical properties of biological molecules (proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipid membranes); applications of spectroscopy to biological systems, both in vitro and in vivo; the mechanisms of light harvesting and energy conversion; and technological developments inspired by biological systems. Lecture sessions (two per week) will be complemented by a weekly discussion of papers from the contemporary literature. Does not meet a distribution requirement The department Prereq.
