CHEM 8230

Descriptive and theoretical aspects of the structure and reactivity of the main group elements.


CHEM 8220

Physical methods used in inorganic and bioinorganic chemical research including UV/visible/near IR absorption spectroscopy, (magnetic) circular dichroism, electron paramagnetic resonance, nuclear magnetic resonance, Mossbauer and X-ray absorption spectroscopies, single crystal x-ray diffraction, and magnetochemistry.


CHEM 8210

The description of chemical bonding and other properties of organic and inorganic molecules in terms of group theory and symmetry. Topics include molecular symmetry and point groups, group theory and quantum mechanics, and symmetry aspects of molecular orbital theory, chemical reactions, ligand field theory and molecular vibrations.


CHEM 8200

Modern biomolecular modeling and structure computations with emphasis on the application of molecular dynamics simulations to proteins, carbohydrates, and protein-ligand complexes. Lectures will be complemented with laboratory sections on the use of modeling software and computer hardware.


CHEM 8190

NMR spectroscopy with applications to proteins and other biopolymers. Special attention will be given to methods of structure determination.


CHEM 8189

Instrumental aspects of NMR spectroscopy including pulsed Fourier transform techniques, proton and carbon-13 techniques used in the analysis of organic compounds, polypeptides and other small molecules. The focus is on the operation of NMR spectrometers presently available in the University of Georgia Chemistry Department.


CHEM 8180

The basic principles of x-ray crystallography with major application to protein structure determination, including laboratories on crystallization techniques and data collection.


CHEM 8150

Current topics in analytical chemistry. Presentations by visiting speakers, UGA faculty and students. Training in oral and visual presentations of analytical chemical research. Non-Traditional Format: Grading system of A/S is required. Normally S/U grades are given for attendance and participation in discussion. A/F grades are given when a student makes a presentation.


CHEM 8140
