T Th 10:10 am-11:40 am |
RKC 103 |
SCI |
Central concepts in
this second part of the course are energy transfer, spontaneity, and change (thermochemistry,
chemical equilibrium, and kinetics.) The laboratory stresses basic laboratory
techniques and quantitative applications. Basic skills in mathematics and
facility with algebra are required. Concurrent enrollment in calculus is
recommended for students who intend to concentrate in chemistry.
Prerequisite: Chemistry 141, or its
equivalent. Class size: 20

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. Prerequisite: CHEM 201. Class

An introduction to
the chemistry of the elements, the class places emphasis on the classification
of the properties and reactivity of the elements by chemical periodicity, structure,
and bonding. Topics in modern inorganic chemistry to be covered include:
molecular orbital and spectroscopic applications of symmetry and group theory,
coordination chemistry of the transition metals, and organometallic reactions
and mechanisms. Prerequisites: Chemistry
201-202. Co-requisites: CHEM 360, or permission of instructor. Class

Advanced lab concepts and techniques will be
introduced and studied. Multi-step organic and organometallic synthesis
will cover a solid portion of the course. Air and moisture sensitive techniques
will be explored. We will also cover many analytical, physical,
inorganic, and organic chemistry techniques and applications, as necessary.
Weekly assignments, tests, presentations, and lab reports will be the basis for
evaluation for the course. Class

CHEM 441 DNA / RNA: THE Structure and Function
of Nucleic Acids |
Swapan Jain |
T 3:10 pm-5:30 pm |
RKC 122 |
N/A |
Cross-listed: Biology 4 credits The fundamental
goals of this course are to enable the students to apply the knowledge & understanding
gained in chemistry and biology classes to advanced topics of study. This
seminar-style course will begin with a review of nucleic acid chemistry. The
influence of DNA/RNA structure on replication, transcription and translation
will be discussed. The importance of protein-nucleic acid
interactions and the role of RNA in regulation (catalytic RNA, riboswitches and
RNA interference pathways) will be the major topics of inquiry. Students will
routinely utilize modeling/imaging software to acquire a deeper appreciation of
nucleic acid structure. The course will be taught using primarily
literature/materials posted on Moodle and books on library reserves desk.
Prerequisites: Biochemistry (CHEM 390/BIOL 301) and permission of the instructor. Class
