This is a very material dense class. Since you're most likely a grad student or an upper level chemistry undergrad, you should know by now that you're expected to memorize a lot of mechanisms and reactions. This class is no different. If you genuinely like organic chemistry and inorganic, this is great news. Professor Pu seems to be a very experienced lecturer, and explains topics very well as he teaches. He's also available a lot after class for you to ask questions and is very open in helping you. Just study well and be prepared to memorize a lot of trends and reaction mechanisms, and you'll do great! At the end, I felt like I learned a great deal of interesting information about metal catalysis and related material.
