4.00 Credits
Lecture, 3 hours; discussion, 1 hour. Prerequisite(s): CHEM 150A with a grade of "C-" or better. A systematic introduction to synthesis, reactions, structure, and bonding of important classes of inorganic compounds. Emphasis on transition metal chemistry.
-
2.00 Credits
Lecture, 2 hours; laboratory, 8 hours. Prerequisite(s): CHEM 005 with a grade of "C-" or better or BCH 102 with a grade of "C-" or better; CHEM 112C with a grade of "C-" or better; consent of instructor is required for students enrolling only in the lecture (2 units); CHEM 125 and CHEM 150A are recommended. Enrollment priority is given to students with a grade of "B-" or better in CHEM 112C. Covers methods for the characterization of organic and inorganic compounds and advanced methods of synthesis of organic and inorganic compounds such as vacuum, inert atmosphere, high-pressure, and photochemical techniques. Involves hands-on use of spectroscopic (nuclear magnetic resonance and optical spectroscopy and mass spectrometry) and computerbased methods for structural characterization. Non- Chemistry majors and graduate students may enroll for the lecture (2 units) or for the lecture and laboratory (4 units).
