PROF. DEBASHIS RAY TYPE OF COURSE : Rerun | Elective | UG/PG


Department of Chemistry COURSE DURATION : 12 weeks ( 20 Jul’20 - 9 Oct’20)
IIT Kharagpur
EXAM DATE : 17 Oct 2020

INTENDED AUDIENCE : B.Sc, M.Sc, B.Pharm, M.Pharm


PRE-REQUISITES : Basic Inorganic Chemistry
INDUSTRIES APPLICABLE TO : Indian Rare Earths Ltd, NTPC, ONGC, SAIL, CIL,MECL, Hind Zinc, Hind Copper, BASF,

COURSE OUTLINE :
It will give an excellent opportunity to study and use the century old Nobel prize winning knowledge of coordination
chemistry. The study will also lead to understand the difference between a coordinated ligand and charge balancing
ion in a coordination compound. Complexation reactions, stability constants, structures, geometrical and optical
isomerism, bonding, reactions and reactivity will be discussed. Color and electronic, and magnetic properties will be
delineated with respect to their application in analytical chemistry, industry and medicine. Use of coordination
compounds of some precious metal ions will be explained in relation to homogeneous catalysis for the production
of useful organic and pharmaceutically important substances.
