Course Objective

Organometallic chemistry is called metal and organic structural units all together. Classification, structural identification, synthesis, stabilities and their chemical reactions of organometallic compounds will be investigated in this course.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   to be able to know the relationship between structure and bonding
2   to be able to applicate the 18 electron or EAN rule to the structure of organometallic compounds
3   to be able to explain the carbonyl and oher important ligands acoording to their structures and binding properties
4   to be able to know organometallic reaction mechanisms
5   to learn about transition metal-carben and tarnsition metal-carbin complexes
6   to be able to know usage of organometallic compounds in organic synthesis
7   to learn the usage of organometallics as catalysts in reactions
