10:10 am- 11:40 am |
RKC 103 |
SCI |
An introduction to the composition, structure, and
properties of matter. The first semester covers stoichiometry,
atomic structure, periodic trends, bonding, molecular
geometry, and the behavior of gases, liquids, and solids. The laboratory
stresses basic techniques and quantitative applications. Students register for
lab separately (see the lab options below). Basic algebra skills are
required. Prerequisite: Concurrent enrollment in precalculus. Enrollment in calculus is recommended for
students who intend to major in chemistry. Class

CHEM 201 A Organic ChemISTRY I: Structure AND MEchANISM |
Emily McLaughlin |
. T . Th . |
8:30 am - 10:00 am |
RKC 103 |
SCI |
Students
study the structure and reactions of specific types of organic compounds and
develop interrelationships that provide an integrated understanding of organic
chemistry. The course emphasizes general principles and reaction mechanisms,
but students are also expected to accumulate and utilize factual material. The
laboratory is coordinated with classroom topics and should provide direct
experience with many reactions and concepts. The laboratory is also intended to
develop familiarity with experiment design, experimental techniques, and
instrumental methods such as chromatography and spectroscopy. Class

Quantum
chemistry, spectroscopy, and thermodynamics are studied in detail. Topics
covered include the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics, the hydrogen
atom, computational chemistry, atomic and molecular spectroscopy, the standard
functions (enthalpy, entropy, Gibbs, etc), and the
microscopic point of view of entropy among others. Pre-requisites: Chemistry
141-142 (or equivalent), Physics 141-142 and Mathematics 141-142, or by

CHEM 431 Organometallic Chemistry |
Craig Anderson |
. T . . . |

RKC 122 |
|
The
goal of this course will be to integrate material from inorganic and organic
chemistry to provide a basis for understanding the rich chemistry of the
metal-carbon bond. The material will
consist mainly of an examination of various organometallic reaction mechanisms,
including substitution, oxidative addition, reductive elimination, and
insertion, combined with a survey of the structure and reactivity of the
important types of organometallic ligands.
Special topics such as organometallic photochemistry, catalysis, and the
use of organometallic reagents in organic synthesis will also be covered.
