Inorganic Chemistry

Submitted by Lori Watson / Earlham College on Thu, 01/04/2018 - 11:27
Description

Inorganic chemists study the entire periodic table (even carbon—as long as it’s bound to a metal!) and are interested in the structure and reactivity of a wide variety of complexes.  We will spend the first third of the course learning some “tools” and then will apply them to a variety of current topics in inorganic chemistry (bioinorganic chemistry, solid state materials, catalysis, nuclear chemistry, and more!).

Inclusive Pedagogy: A Misidentified Molecule and Paper Retraction

Submitted by Sibrina Collins / Lawrence Technological University on Sun, 09/10/2017 - 19:20
Description

This learning object focuses on teaching students how to read and use Chemical and Engineering News for class discussions and critically evaluate the scientific literature. Recently, Chemical and Engineering News published an article about the retraction of a 15-year old paper, which had misidentified a multidentate ligand, which is central to the paper (Ritter, S.K. “Chemist Retract 15-year old paper and publish a revised version.” Chem. Eng. News, 2017, 95, (36), p6).

Description

Chapter 19 from George Stanley's organometallics course, Polymerization and Metathesis

 

this chapter covers polymerization catalysis and olefin metathesis.

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