Learning outcomes
The course is aimed to give basic information on the chemistry of the elements of blocks d and f. The behavior of these elements will be rationalized on the basis of their position in the periodic table, and also using physical chemistry concepts.
Course contents
Coordination compounds: ligands, coordination number, isomerism, nomenclature, electronic structure, optical and magnetic properties, stability and reactivity. Fundamental concepts in the chemistry of block-d elements: periodic trends in physical and chemical properties, bonding, oxidation states, preparations and uses. Main aspects of the chemistry of lanthanides and actinides.
