After successful completion of the course, students are able to understand and use the fundamental concepts in the chemistry of complexes and metalorganic chemistry. Likewise the course includes an introduction into selected topics in main group chemistry.
Module 1 complex chemistry (Bayer-Skoff): Bonding in metal complexes; electronic structure of transition metal complexes; derived optical and magnetic properties. Ligand substitution reactions.
Module 2 organometallic chemistry (Kirchner): Methods for the synthesis of organometallic compounds of the main group elements (especially Li, Mg, Al, Si and P) and the transition metals. Types of organometallic ligands (metal-ligand bonding), metal-carbon single and multiple bonds. Basic reactions in organometallic chemistry: oxidative addition / reductive elimination, insertion and elimination reactions, ligand reactivity. Simple examples for organometallic compounds in homogeneous catalysis.
Module 3 main group chemistry (Bayer-Skoff): Specialities in the chemistry of the semi-metals, especially boron and silicon. High- and low-coordinated main group compounds and their role in reaction sequences. Chemistry of carbides and nitrides. Inorganic polymers (silicones, phosphazenes). Metal-organic compounds (alkoxides).
The lecture will be delivered in presence (+hybrid) mode (as long as COVID restrictions allow presence mode), whereby in Praktikums-lecture hall a maximum of 118 are allowed (only yellow seats can be occupied!).
To allow planning with regard to COVID restrictions, this year you must sign on for the lecture via TISS!
Additionally, the lectures will be recorded and gradually uploaded as videos plus the used slides via TUWEL. Coursename: "165.112 Anorganische Chemie II (VO 3,0) 2021W".
To have access the following steps are needed: 1. Register for this lecture (LVA). 2. Register in TUWEL with the following data (Login: Matrikelnumber, Password: your TUPassword). You have access to TUWEL immediately : tuwel.tuwien.ac.at 3. Sign yourself into the TUWEL course.
Lecture materials from prior years are available in the TUWEL course "165.112 Anorganische Chemie II (VO 3,0) 2020W" (also self-sign in into course required).
