QUIM-1210 Química Inorgánica I

It will address the periodical properties of elements, the different types of bonds (covalent, ionic, metallic), with their pertinent structures and related chemical behaviors, including the theory of molecular orbitals and oxidation-reduction reactions. It will also study the chemistry of anions and cations as an introduction to coordination chemistry (except for advanced theories of coordinative bonding), non-aqueous solvents, various theories of acidity, some specific acids and bases. In its second part, the course provides the students, in a descriptive fashion, with the behavior of chemical elements in the main groups and the transition groups, as well as the compounds that these make up.

QUIM-1211 Laboratorio de Química Inorganica I

Chemistry is basically an experimental science, and along with an understanding of the right theories to explain events, students should be familiar with and practice the procedures of handling and preparation. This first experimental course in Inorganic Chemistry teaches the most basic procedures that will be perfected and go onto more complicated procedures in courses to follow. In this course, students will experiment with substances that are easy to handle and prepare in order to learn the most elemental techniques, mainly aimed at learning a good system to work in the lab.

QUIM-1212 Química Inorgánica II

The course begins with an introduction to coordination chemistry, based on the discussion of various advanced theories on coordinative bonding, such as theory of Pauling, Crystal Field theory, spectro-chemical series, magnetic properties, model of molecular orbitals, including the types of bonds: donor & sigma, donor &pie, and acceptor &pie, complex reaction mechanisms, followed by the symmetry theory, specific groups, character tables, molecular vibrations, interpretation of electronic spectrum, Tanabe and Sugano diagrams, load transfer, and the kinetics of complex reactions. The second part addresses first of all the chemistry of organometallic compounds, this includes a reflection on the difference of elements in the s, p, d and f groups, the organometallic chemistry of elements in the main groups and the transition groups. A description is provided of complexes with different types of bonds, their reactivity and elementary reactions in organometallic chemistry such as: substitution, oxidative addition and reductive elimination, insertion and elimination, and reductive coupling. The course will be rounded up with a brief introduction to the applications of ergonometric compounds in the industry.

QUIM-1301 Química Orgánica

Organic Chemistry is without any doubt the science that by itself creates the objectives of its studying, based on the versatility of carbon as its main element. The course encompasses three large modules, in the first one, the student acquires knowledge of structural principles, bonding models, hybridation and molecular geometry, polarity, nomenclature in accordance with IUPAC, bonding rotation and stereochemistry, the second model involves studying fundamental mechanisms such as radical halogenation, SN! and SN2 substitution mechanisms and E1 and E2 elimination, which combined with other special mechanisms lead to the development of the third module related to the formation, reactivity and some spectroscopic characteristics of functional groups, from hydrocarbons to oxygenated compounds such as acids and its derivates.
