[Cr:4, Lc:3, Tt:0, Lb:0]
- Coordination chemistry of 1st and 2nd row transition metals: Reaction
mechanism in transition metal complexes, trans effect, inner & outer
sphere mechanism, electronic spectra of transition metal complexes,
Orgel and Tanabe Sugano diagrams. Types of magnetic behavior and its
qualitative and quantitative discussion with respect to coordination
complexes.
- Organometallic complexes of 1st and 2nd row transition elements and
their application in catalysis. Silicon analogs of 1st and 2nd row
transition metals will also be discussed. Fluxional organo transition
metal compounds and stereochemical nonrigidity.
- Concept of isolobality in organometallic and metal cluster compounds
and parallels between main group and organometallic chemistry.
- Polyhedral clusters with or without a metal-metal bond: structure,
bonding and properties.
