COURSE ORGANIZATION
COURSE ORGANIZATION
This course consists of 15 lectures (CMs), 13 discussion sections (TDs), and 2 labs (TPs). All three groups (BIO/SV-INT, CHB/CeB-INT, and PCM-INT) attend the lectures. Each group has its own TDs. For the TPs, each group is divided into two subgroups (A and B) which do the same labs but at different times.
The course covers:
Stoechimetry and equilibria
Coordination complexes
Chemical structure (isomers) and how structures are represented
Electronic effects
Intermolecular forces
Organic chemical reactions (substitution and elimination)
Additional information regarding how the contents of a North American General Chemistry course is distributed among courses here in France may be found below in the section "Is CHI 231 really General Chemistry?"

We also explained some properties of the d Block as the magnetic properties due to unpaired electron (paramagnetic vs diamagnetic) and we expressed the magnetic moment. He gave us the formula with the Bohr Magnetron value and unit
We saw how to name the complexes. First we started with the chemical formula of a complex, the order depending if it is a salt, if we add a cation or an anion and also the order of the ligands depending on their first letter. We saw the exception name of the H20, CO and NH3. We detailled the name when it is a anion, when it's neutral and when we have several similar ligands

2022-2023
CM: ??
DAY, DATE, TIME, ROOM: Friday 22 April 2023
COVERED:
From Sarah Bellir:
I. Electronic features of bonds Polarity : the influence of the symmetry of a molecule on the distribution of the electron cloud and we talked about the dipole moment Polarizability of a bond : link between the distortion of the electron cloud and the creation of a dipole moment, the formula of the dipole moment, if Z increases the polarizability increases too, multiple bonds are more polarized than simple bonds ( double bond > simple bond)
II. Electronic effect in molecule EDG and EWG definition Inductive effect : exists for sigma-bonds and based on the electronegativity, -I and +I defintition with a scale to classify which element is -I or +I and the effect of a multiple carbon chain on the inductive effect on a molecule ( we have taken as example the bromobutane) Resonance effect : only for pi-bonds and lone pair, the characteristics of a conjugated system, +M and -M definition and some examples , resonance effect> inductive effect, the more the the conjugated base is stable, the more acidic will be the molecule.

COVERED:
This was a complicated TD. I returned the stereochemistry quiz. There was some question regarding the correction of one of the problems so I did it on the board and discovered that the answer on the barême was incorrect. I then collected the stereochemistry quizzes for recorrection (sigh). Next we had to decide when to reschedule the next TD so as to avoid the National Strike next Thursday. Finally we did

LABORATORY
For now, all we know is that the Labs (TP) will take place during weeks 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, and 18, but that each student will only be doing two labs and so will only have labs during two of those weeks (unless both labs are squeezed into a single week.)

CHI231p01 2020-2021 BCH/CeB-INT
TP: stereochemistry lab
DAY, DATE, TIME, ROOM: Tue. 1 Mar. 2022, 13h15-17h15, DLST-TP C020
COVERED:
This 4 hour "Lab" is a mandatory 4 hour cours-TD. It is difficult for the students and it is difficult for the teacher, especially towards the end as time and concentration run out. The BCH/CeB-INT group contains a large number of former medical students who have already seen a large amount of this material and who rushed on ahead much more rapidly than the others. Thus different parts of the group were advancing at very different rates and this created a complex teaching problem for me.
The hand out, which contains a few errors, is very much improved compared to previous years. It is pretty much self-contained. Nevertheless I preferred to give my own explanations of a number of things. This is what we did:
I. sigma bonding
I.A. I reviewed the valence-bond picture of sigma bonding. We did Newman projections for the different conformations of ethane. I discussed steric repulsion and the energy of the molecule as a function of the angle of rotation around the C-C bond.
I.B. I took time to discuss correct drawing of hash-wedge structures and how asymmetric carbons lead to nonsuperimposable molecules. I also talked about how interchanging any two groups around an asymmetric carbon inverts the configuration.
I.C. We went through symmetry elements (mirror planes and inversion centers). I explained why no molecule having a plane of symmetry can have an enantiomer. We stopped from time to time for students to do exercises and I tried to write all the answers on the board so that they could check their work.
I.D. I went through the definition of R and S and the trick of inverting R and S when the lowest priority group is in front rather than behind. I then went over the CIP rules in my own way with many examples. The hand-out is missing an important CIP rule, namely that the next most important branch must sometimes be followed when the most important branches are identical. This is actually needed actually for one of the exercises when assigning R and S to the different carbons in Ficher representations.
I.E. We went through D/L nomenclature and Fischer representations.
I.F. We then studied the compounds with 2 asymmetric carbons where the ideas of diastereomer and meso were introduced.
II. pi bonding
II.A. I reviewed the valence-bond picture of pi bonding and reminded the students of why rotation around a pi bond is energetically prohibitive.
II.B. We discussed cis/trans and Z/E nomenclature.
II.C. Boat and chair conformations of cyclohexane were discussed. This was done hurriedly at the end.
I am not sure that points II.B and II.C were properly absorbed by the students, simply because the explanation was hurried and the students were very tired.

IS CHI 231 REALLY GENERAL CHEMISTRY?
IS CHI 231 REALLY GENERAL CHEMISTRY?
CHI 201 and CHI 231 are the same course, except that CHI 231 is taught in English for International students and CHI 201 is taught in French. Officially CHI 231 is called "General Chemistry." This is a little misleading, at least for a North American, because the philosophy there is that the first year of chemistry should be general in the sense of covering all of chemistry. The job of subsequent chemistry courses is then to go into more detail about subjects already treated in General Chemistry. I have heard that a similar teaching philosophy was once common in France but this is no longer the case.
The result is that many topics that North Americans first see in their General Chemistry course are first seen in France in various different places, including CHI 131 (crystals + atomic structure and chemical bonding), CHI 231 (molecular structure and reactivity), and CHI 335 (chemical kinetics and thermodynamics) ... and possibly also over some other courses I do not know about.
This means that any book that you find in the library that are in English and are called General Chemistry will likely include topics in CHI 231 but you will really have to sift through the different chapters to find what the material that best fits CHI 231.
I thought it might be interesting to take a "typical" General Chemistry book and analyze where each part is studied in the French system (or at least at the Université Grenoble Alpes). I have chosen
Peter Atkins and Loretta Jones, Chemical Principles: The Quest for Insight (W. H. Freeman and Company: New York, 1999)
No book is perfect, but I have really grown to like this one. It is also possible to find a French translation but I would recommend the original English if your goal is to study chemistry in English.
