Objectifs et compétences
Objectifs :
The objective of this lecture is, via the study of the chemical bonding, to allow the student to connect structure / composition and reactivity / properties of compounds, and this for organic molecules, transition metal complexes or solid state compounds. Special attention will be paid on the introduction to the frontier orbital approximation and its use to address the problems of absolute and relative reactivity, regioselectivity and stereoselectivity in organic chemistry (Woodward-Hoffman rules, electrocyclic reactions, sigmatropic rearrangements,…); properties of transition metal complexes (Tanabe-Sugano diagrams, Marcus law, Curie law) and chemical bond in solids (ionic models, band theory (orbital description of the electronic structure of solids),…).
Recommanded prerequisites:
FRONTIER ORBITALS AND ORGANIC CHEMICAL RECATIONS
Molecular orbitals and their representation as linear combination of atomic orbitals. Basics on Hückel molecular orbital theory. Basics in organic chemical reactions (nucleophilic or electrophilic addition and substitution, rearrangements, cycloadditions, etc…).
MOLECULAR INORGANIC CHEMISTRY.
Symmetry and shape of d orbitals, basis of crystal field theory (octahedral symmetry), notion of redox potential, elementary notions of thermodynamics (K, DG, DH, DS), elements of kinetic (first and second order kinetic), elementary notions on molecular orbitals applied to transition metal complexes.
CHEMICAL BONDS IN SOLIDS
Stacking and crystal structure of simple metallic or ionic coumpounds. Covalent bond model for a molecule (Hückel, LCAO). Shape and symmetry of d orbitals, crystal field theory (octahedral symmetry). Electronegativity.
