Submitted by Adam Johnson / Harvey Mudd College on Sat, 03/21/2020 - 19:49
Description

April 2021 update: I am in the process of expanding this laboratory and have now recorded videos, linked below, on youtube. There is a video of general air sensitive reaction setup, the synthesis and isolation of the mesitylene and the N,N-diethylaniline derivatives. I also have better quality data which I will add here as well.

Organometallic Chemistry

VIPEr Fellows 2019 Workshop Favorites

Submitted by Barbara Reisner / James Madison University on Sat, 06/08/2019 - 16:41

During our first fellows workshop, the first cohort of VIPEr fellows pulled together learning objects that they've used and liked or want to try the next time they teach their inorganic courses.

Inorganic Chemistry for Geochemistry and Environmental Sciences Fundamentals and Applications by George W. Luther III

Submitted by Rachel Narehood Austin / Barnard College, Columbia University on Wed, 01/04/2017 - 16:10
Description

This is a great new textbook by George Luther III from the University of Delaware.  The textbook represents the results of a course he has taught for graduate students in chemical oceanography, geochemistry and related disciplines.  It is clear that the point of the book is to provide students with the core material from inorganic chemistry that they will  need to explain inorganic processes in the environment.

Chapter 7--Stanley Organometallics

Submitted by George Stanley / Louisiana State University on Fri, 07/29/2016 - 12:19
Description

Chapter 7 from George Stanley's organometallics course, Alkenes and Alkynes

 

this chapter covers bonding and structure of metal pi-bonds, some descriptive chemistry, and their NMR spectroscopy.

The powerpoint slides contain answers to some of the in-class exercises, so those are behind the "faculty only" wall. I shares these with students after the class, but not before.

Chapter 6--Stanley Organometallics

Submitted by George Stanley / Louisiana State University on Fri, 07/29/2016 - 11:51
Description

Chapter 6 from George Stanley's organometallics course, Alkyls

 

this chapter covers bonding and structure of metal alkyls, some descriptive chemistry, and their NMR spectroscopy.

The powerpoint slides contain answers to some of the in-class exercises, so those are behind the "faculty only" wall. I shares these with students after the class, but not before.

everyone is more than welcome to edit the materials to suit their own uses, and I would appreciate being notified of any mistakes that are found.
