Molecular Orbital Theory Course
Dive into molecular orbital theory to tackle practical chemistry challenges. Link MO diagrams to key experimental metrics such as bond lengths, magnetic behaviour, IR spectroscopy, and reaction pathways. Master the art of decoding quantum chemistry computations to sharpen mechanistic understanding, optimise ligand designs, and enhance experimental strategies with confidence.

What will I learn?
This course equips you with essential skills to construct and analyse molecular orbital diagrams, determine electron configurations, spin states, and bond orders, and connect these to experimental observations like bond lengths, vibrational frequencies, and magnetic properties. You'll gain proficiency in interpreting computational results, selecting appropriate calculation methods, sidestepping frequent errors, and employing frontier orbital analysis to anticipate chemical reactivity, inform ligand selection, and articulate evidence-based insights effectively.
