Progress?

Is the world a better place today than it was fifty years ago? Will it be better yet in another fifty years? We cannot answer such questions without asking what we mean by "better," that is, what counts as progress. The question of what progress is cannot be answered simply: the term has been used in different ways at different times and has also been the subject of much critical examination.

Inorganic Chemistry

This course will discuss structure, bonding, and properties of transition metal-containing molecules and inorganic solids. Students will examine structure and bonding in transition metal complexes through molecular orbital and ligand field theories, with an emphasis on the magnetic, spectroscopic, and thermodynamic properties of transition metal complexes. The class will also examine reactions of transition metal complexes, including the unique chemistry of organometallic compounds. The laboratory experiments complement lecture material and include an independent project.

Advanced Organic Chem

In this interactive course, students will explore the chemical tools and physical principles that can be applied to deduce organic mechanistic pathways. This course expands on topics from both CHEM 221 and 231 to include discussions of reaction stereochemistry and asymmetric reaction outcomes, spectroscopic and theoretical methods to validate proposed mechanisms, and catalysis with an emphasis on basic principles. Projects requiring primary literature review and proposal of novel research in the field of organic chemistry will be a major component of the class.
