  1. Advanced Inorganic Chemistry Chem 342 Miessler & Tarr, 4th edition

  2. Syllabus • Goals & Objectives • Textbook (bring to class) • Attendance & Grading2 take-home exams + final (55%)homework (15%)literature presentation (10%)literature exam (15%)participation (5%)

  3. Course Content • Chapters 1-5 (bonding theories)Chapter 6, Acid-Base & Donor-Acceptor TheoryChapters 9, 10, 12 (coordination chemistry) Chapter 11, Coord Chem: Electronic Spectra Chapters 13, 14 (organometallic chemistry)Chapter 16, Bioinorganic & Environmental Chem Experimental Methods in Inorganic Chemistry Nanochemistry; noncovalent interactions

  4. Chapter 1 - Intro to Inorganic • What is it? • Sub-fields:main-group, coordination chemistry, organometallic, bioinorganic, physical inorganic, heavy-metals, trans-uranium…….. • How does it compare to Organic Chemistry? • Compounds with single, double, triple bonds • Inorganic compounds can contain quadruple bonds (sigma + pi + pi + delta bond)[Cl4Re≡ReCl4]2– • Carbon: maximum number of connections = 4 • Inorganic: carbon is found in carbon cluster compounds, in bridging alkyl groups

  5. Chapter 1 - Intro to Inorganic • Organic: H is a terminal atom, only bonds to one other element. Inorganic: The same rules do not apply. Lewis structure of B2H6? • Organic: Limited geometries (linear, trigonal planar, tetrahedral, bent). Inorganic: Also square planar, trigonal bipyramid, octahedral, and more • Inorganic also has aromatic compounds (borazine B3N3H6)

  6. History of Inorganic Chemistry • Ancient times through Alchemy: • Descriptive chemistry, techniques, minerals (Cu compounds), glasses, glazes, gunpowder • 17th Century • Mineral acids (HCl, HNO3, H2SO4), salts and their reactions, acid and bases • Quantitative work became important, molar mass, gases, volumes • 1869: The periodic table • Late 1800s: Chemical Industry • Isolate, refine, purify metals and compounds • 1896: Discovery of Radioactivity • Atomic structure, quantum mechanics, nuclear chemistry (through early 20th century)

  7. History of Inorganic Chemistry • 20th Century • Coordination chemistry, organometallic chemistry • WWII & Military projects: Manhattan project, jet fuels (boron compounds) • 1950s • Crystal field theory, ligand field theory, molecular orbital theory • 1955 • Organometallic catalysis of organic reaction (polymerization of ethylene) • Modern Issues • Bioinorganic chemistry (nitrogen fixation), modeling biochemical process, enzymes, x-ray crystallography, • nanochemistry, manipulation of noncovalent interactions

  8. Take a Look • Literature taken from Inorganic Chemistry • Take a quick look:What are the sub-fields?What do you recognize, understand?What looks foreign?
