Course objectives

Basic laboratory course in inorganic preparative chemistry. It aims to introduce students to syntheses, properties and structures of simple inorganic compounds such as oxides, halides and other salts, acids and their functional derivatives, and complexes.

Syllabus

• 1. Introduction, safety rules, laboratory notebook, worked example of experiment calculations. Potassium hydrogen sulfate, alkalimetric titration.
  2. Preparative route selection criteria. Solubility. Potassium oxalate monohydrate, manganometric titration. Iron(II) sulfate.
  3. Copper(II) sulfate, copper(I) iodide. Mohr's salt.
  4. Synthetic routes to oxides. Orthoboric acid.
  5. Chromium(III) oxide. Potassium chomate. Purity assessment of Mohr's salt.
  6. Synthetic routes to hydroxides. Hexaaquacobalt(II)chloride. Potassium tris(oxalato)chromate(III).
  7. Hexaaminecobalt(III) chloride. Pentaammine-chlorocobalt(III) chloride. Potassium tetraperoxochromate(V).
  8. Synthetic routes to acids. Metal acetylacetonate complexes. Thin-layer chromatography.
  9. Calcium tungstate. Crystal structures of basic inorganic compounds.
  10. Synthetic routes to salts. Potassium chlorate. .
  11. Boric oxide, trimethylborate. Amonnium tetrathiomolybdate(VI).
  12. Synthetic routes to halides. Potassium disulfate, potassium methylsulfate.
  13. Bismuth(III) oxide. Bismut. Thermite reaction.
  14. Synthetic routes to coordination compounds. Potassium peroxydisulfate. Iodometric titration.
