Courses
Credits: 3
Focuses on the development of advanced skills & techniques in chemical synthesis. Intended to provide students with training in air-sensitive chemistry, including the use of inert-atmosphere glove boxes & standard Schlenk techniques. Students will become familiar with a variety of characterization methods. Designed for students who wish enhance their synthetic skills in preparation for laboratory-based jobs or graduate school.
Credits: 1–4
New course in the subject of chemistry.
Credits: 3
Discusses the principles of main-group element chemistry with a focus on synthesis, structure, reactivity, and applications. This course is intended to provide sufficient background knowledge of the topics and techniques used in this field so that students should be able to understand and critically evaluate the current main-group literature. Prerequisite: undergraduate general and organic chemistry or instructor permission.
Credits: 1–4
New course in the subject of chemistry.
Credits: 1–12
Students will conduct research in main-group and organometallic synthesis using appropriate techniques and instrumentation.
