2. Inorganic Chemistry Originally meant nonliving chemistry.
Now includes other subjects e.g. structure, reactivity, catalysis, stability, symmetry, experimental techniques; gas-phase, solution, and solid-state chemistry; superconductors, clusters, coordination compounds, bioinorganic molecules, etc.
3. Why do we study inorganic chemistry? To fine-tune chemistry concepts learned during earlier formative years.
To provide tools to assist the student in rationalizing structure and reactivity.
To report the discovery of novel compounds and/or synthetic processes.
4. Organic vs. Inorganic Compounds
5. Organic and Inorganic Molecules
6. Terminal and Bridging Groups
7. Metal-metal bonds
8. Sigma-, Pi-, and Delta-bonds
9. Crystal Field Theory
10. MO Diagrams of ML6 (sigma only)
11. Classes of Inorganic Reactions acid-base
addition
elimination
oxidation-reduction
insertion
substitution
rearrangement metathesis
solvolysis
chelation
cyclizationn and condensation
nuclear reactions
12. Chemical Equilibrium for any chemical reaction
aA + bB + cC +... = kK + lL + mM
13. The Reaction Free Energy G = H - TS
?G = ?H T?S (at constant temperature)
?rG = S?fG(products) - S?fG(reactants)
?rG = -RT ln K
Spontaneous Process: ?rG < 0
14. Kinetics Provides insight into the mechanism of a reaction.
A kinetic study begins with the determination of the empirical rate law.
The rate of a reaction may be modified by the use of a catalyst.
15. A Spontaneous Process... ?rG < 0 (sufficiently negative reaction free energy)
The rate of the reaction is appreciable.
16. Chemistry is Not a Fragmented Discipline... acid/base chemistry, organometallics (with organic chemistry)
redox, spectra, solubility (with analytical chemistry)
structure, spectra, theory (with physical chemistry)
organometallic catalysts (with polymer chemistry)
coordination compounds (with biochemistry)
