fall 2020 courses
CH 381M Advanced Analytical Chemistry
Prof. Eberlin, MW 9:30-11 am. Theory and application of special methods and recent advances.
CH 386J Physical Organic Chemistry
Prof. Anslyn, TTh 11-12:30 pm. Advanced organic chemistry, with emphasis on theory and reaction mechanisms.
CH 390K 2 Bio-Inorganic Chemistry
Prof. Rose, TTh 12:30-2 pm. Explores the roles of transition metals in biology, mostly with respect to protein structure, function and catalysis. Examines established and developing methods of spectroscopy used to probe the geometrical and electronic structure of metal ions in proteins. Analyzes modern areas of study in bio-inorganic chemistry, especially relating to the roles of metals in metalloenzymes, but also including emerging topics such as metallodrugs, metal-based imaging agents, and molecular sensors. The principles of transition metal chemistry will be explored, expanded and demonstrated in the context of biological systems.
CH 390L Mass Spectrometry
Prof. Brodbelt, TTh 11-12:30 pm. Overview of the instrumentation, methods, and theory of mass spectrometry and gas-phase ion chemistry. Subjects include ionization methods, mass analyzers, vacuum components and pressure measurement, ion activation methods, analytical figures of merit, and integration of mass spectrometry with separation methods. Other subjects include gas-phase thermochemistry, kinetic theory of ion fragmentation, interpretation of mass spectra, and special subjects that may include ion mobility, proteomics, imaging, and elemental analysis, among others.
