Inorganic chemistry "Techniques and methods"
CH-611 / 2 crédits
Enseignant(s): Severin Kay, Mazzanti Marinella
Langue: Anglais
Remark: Next time Fall 2024
Frequency
Every 3 years
Summary
To present and discuss important recent contributions in the field of inorganic chemistry incorporating techniques and methods. Student literature seminars based on selected publications,emanating from the last 12 months. Seminar preceded by introduction to the topic followed by group discussion.
Content
The topics covered in this course will include recent advances in the field of:
1. bioinorganic chemistry (e.g. EPR of metalloenzyme model compounds, X-ray diffraction techniques).
2. Metallo-pharmaceuticals (cell culture assays, determining mode of activity).
3. Organometallic compounds (e.g. new concepts in combinatorial catalysis, elucidation of reaction mechanisms using in situ high pressure spectroscopic methods).
4. Supramolecular coordination chemistry (combinatorial methodologies).
5. Computer modelling of inorganic and organometallic systems. Techniques from other fields which could find uses in inorganic chemistry (e.g. atomic force microscopy).
The specific content will be chosen by the instructors and will be renewed every year.
Keywords
