Course Description

A systematic study of modern inorganic chemistry beginning with the chemistry of the main group elements. Topics may include periodic trends, molecular symmetry, solid state structure and bonding, chemical relationships and unusual bonding interactions. A qualitative approach to polyatomic molecular orbital theory is discussed. The chemistry of the transition elements is discussed including stereochemistry and isomerism, bonding (crystal and ligand field theory), magnetic and spectroscopic properties, metal-metal bonds, metal clusters, organometallic and bioinorganic chemistry.
