  • Chemistry 341: Quantum Chemistry and Spectroscopy

    4.00 Credits
    St Lawrence University

    A study of the sometimes unexpected consequences of quantization and the wave-particle duality of light and matter in chemical systems that will uncover the foundations of quantum chemistry. Experimental evidence, usually collected from spectroscopic results, is used to support postulates and gain further insight into the macroscopic properties of atoms and molecules. Topics include tunneling, molecular motions, quantum mechanical origins of orbitals and energy levels of the hydrogen atom, molecular orbitals, chemical bonding and related spectroscopic methods. Prerequisites: Chemistry 104 or 105, Physics 104 or 152, Mathematics 136.

  • Chemistry 342: Biophysical Chemistry

    4.00 Credits
    St Lawrence University

    The foundations of chemical equilibria in thermodynamics are used to ask why some reactions are always favorable, some are only possible under particular conditions and others are impossible. We will study reaction kinetics to determine the timescales and possible reaction mechanisms of favorable reactions, and read and discuss journal articles relevant to thermodynamic and kinetic questions of current importance in biochemistry. Prerequisites: Chemistry 104 or 105, Physics 104 or 152, Mathematics 135. Recommended: Mathematics 136.

  • Chemistry 351: Advanced Organic Laboratory:S ynthesis,Separation,Analysis

    4.00 Credits
    St Lawrence University

    Experimental emphasis on advanced laboratory techniques associated with organic synthesis, structure elucidation and study of reaction mechanism. Examples include diastereo- and enantioselective reactions, low temperature reactions, organometallic reagents, sample manipulation, multistep syntheses, natural product isolation and structure determination. Various chromatographic separation techniques are explored. Analysis by IR, GC GC-MS, multi nuclear 1 and 2 dimensional NMR and UV-VIS is integral to experiments. Classroom presentations on theory associated with reactions undertaken, separation science and spectroscopic analysis accompany and complement the laboratory work. This course is writing-intensive; special emphasis is placed on written and oral presentation of experimental results. Two lectures and two laboratories per week. Normally taken by first-semester juniors, and required of all chemistry majors. Offered only in the fall semester. Prerequisite: Chemistry 222.

  • Chemistry 352: Physical and Inorganic Chemistry

    4.00 Credits
    St Lawrence University

    Laboratory experiments include examination of physical, thermodynamic and kinetic properties of chemical reactions and the preparation of inorganic compounds. Spectroscopic methods are used to study fundamental properties of molecules. Products of inorganic syntheses are characterized using a variety of techniques, such as ultraviolet-visible, infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and magnetic susceptibility. Written assignments are designed to develop rhetorical skills using chemical language, primary literature sources, practical data processing and presentation software. The course is organized into two lectures and two laboratories per week. This course, normally taken in the junior year, is required for all chemistry majors and is offered only during the spring semester. Prerequisites: Chemistry 205 and 341 or 342.

  • Chemistry 403: Advanced Inorganic Chemistry

    4.00 Credits
    St Lawrence University

    A study of the field of modern inorganic chemistry, with the central theme of understanding the periodic trends of the elements. To conduct this survey of the periodic table, this course draws upon and extends the skills and knowledge acquired by students in their previous chemistry courses. Topics include acid-base theories, chemical bonding and molecular structure, descriptive chemistry of non-transition elements, and coordination chemistry. The course also explores the application of the principles of inorganic chemistry to such active fields of research as materials/nanoscale, organometallic and bioinorganic chemistry. Prerequisite: Chemistry 341, 342, or permission of instructor

  • Chemistry 415: Advanced Biochemistry

    4.00 Credits
    St Lawrence University

    A variety of topics are covered in depth depending on the interests of the students. The course begins with an overview of metabolism and its hormonal regulation. Other topics may include protein synthesis and targeting, molecular immunology, sensory systems and neurotransmission, hormone action, membrane transport, oncogenes and cancer, photosynthesis and advanced topics in metabolism. Topics of current interest may also be included. Through both written and oral presentation students develop their abilities to use the scientific literature and communicate in science. Prerequisite: Chemistry 309 or permission of instructor. Counts toward neuroscience major (cellular track). Also offered as Biochemistry 415 and Biology 415.
