Organometallic Chemistry & Catalysis Laboratory

课程简介

/ Indicative Syllabus Experiments on preparation and characterization of ferrocene, acetylation of ferrocene, ligand substitution reactions of Mn carbonyl complex, synthesis and reactivity of η5 -cyclopentadienyl-ruthenium compounds, and synthesis of Ni complex and its application to coupling reaction.

目标

To give the students some basic training on experimental organometallic chemistry including synthesis of organometallic complexes (some of which are air- and moisture-sensitive), the characterization of these complexes using various physical methods, and study of their reactivity.

Teaching Pattern

Methodology Students will be provided with the general procedures for the experiments, but they will have to design the set-up of the apparatus and to work out the details of the experiments. The students will be working in small groups (usually 2 or 3 students in a group); each student will be graded based not only on his/her laboratory reports, but also on his/her laboratory performance, which is monitored by the lecturer or the teaching assistants. The lecturer and teaching assistants are available for helping the students, but they will avoid giving excessive instructions to them. Laboratory safety is always an important component in the laboratory class. -- 1 of 2 --
