Scientific Disciplinary Sector (SSD)
CHIM/03 - GENERAL AND INORGANIC CHEMISTRY
Period
Secondo semestre dal Mar 7, 2022 al Jun 10, 2022.
Learning outcomes
The main aim of the course is to provide students with a solid knowledge on the chemical and chemical-physic aspects which rule the functions of bioinorganic molecules (i.e. metal-enzymes and metal-proteins) and coordination compounds from an applicative point of view, focused on green-chemistry, biomedicine and environmental and industrial biotechnology.
Program
The course seeks to address the following subjects:
1) main concept of Inorganic Chemistry
2) coordination geometries of the main metal cations
3) coordination chemistry: kinetic and thermodynamic aspects
4) introduction to Bioinorganic chemistry
5) Physical methods
6) Alkali metal and alkaline earth cations
7) Non-redox metalloenzymes
8) Oxygen carriers and transport proteins
9) redox proteins
10) N-fixation
11) metal ion transport and storage
12) metals and nonmetals in Biology and medicine
13) Updated state of art about the applications of Bioinorganic Chemistry in the industrial field (Biocatalysis and Biomaterials).
Bibliography
Examination Methods
