CHM 473 Inorganic Chemistry II Laboratory

The lab is taught under the principles of discovery-based learning. The experiments involve syntheses of main group ligands using organometallic chemistry and inert atmosphere techniques (vacuum lines and a glovebox); syntheses of new transition metal complexes and their investigations by spectroscopic methods (UV-vis, multinuclear NMR, FT-IR), electrochemistry, magnetic measurements (magnetic balance), and structural analyses by X-ray diffraction methods (when possible). Fee: $60.
