Inorganic Pharmaceutical Chemistry Inorganic substances used as medicines/ preparation of pharmaceutical products
Elements
Group: Similar Properties Arrangement: Increasing Atomic Number
Periodic Functions Physical and Chemical Properties
Basis in the Study of Elements Periodic Table Electronic Configuration
Periodic Variation w/ increasing atomic number Periodic Variations
Metallic Properties
Decrease: Across Metals -> Metalloids -> Nonmetals
Increase: Top to Bottom Atomic Size
Decrease: Across Increasing nuclear change and valence electrons
Increase: Top to Bottom Increasing energy level
Ionization Energy Tendency of an atom to resist the loss of an electron Higher: Nucleus Hold on the Electron (strong) Increase: Across Decrease: Top to Bottom
Electron Affinity Tendency of an atom to gain an electron More Negative: Greater gain Increase: Across Decrease: Top to Bottom
Electronegativity Ability of an atom to attract electrons Increase: Across Decrease: Top to Bottom
Group I-A THE ALKALI METALS Lithium (Li), Sodium (Na), Potassium (K), Rubidium (Rb), Cesium (Cs) and Francium (Fr) Large w/ one valence electron (ns1)

Easy Removal (ionization) Difficulty of Removal decreases; Atomic Radius increases Very Good Reducing Agents Very Active Metals Reactivity increases w/ increasing Atomic Weight Cesium Most Active Metal Francium unstable radioactive species Never found in nature (free state) +1 oxidation state Salts
Water Soluble (most soluble) (exception: Li small size makes some salts insoluble;ex. Fluoride, Carbonate and Phosphate)
Chemical Incompatibilities rare Monovalent Copper and Gold
Unstable; permits ionization Monovalent Silver
Stable Form Hydroxides

1/2} [Li (normal oxides), Na (peroxides) and K, Rb and Cs (superoxides)] React Vigorously w/ water forming hydrogen gas and metallic hydroxides; stored under
kerosene and coated w/ paraffin [Hydrides (hydrogen gas and metal hydroxide), Oxides(Hydroxides), and Peroxides and Superoxides (Oxygen and Hydroxides)].
Group I-B THE COINAGE METALS Copper (Cu), Silver (Ag), and Gold (Au) Ornamental and coinage purposes Single Valence Electron Complete shell (18 electrons) Monovalent state

Comparison of Group I-A and Group I-B Metals:
Alkali Metals Coinage MetalsDo not occur free in nature (salts) Occur free in nature; easily recovered (reduction)Very Active; displace other metals. ChemicalActivity increases as atomic weight increases.
Not Active; displaced by other metals. ChemicalActivity decreases as atomic weight increases.
Oxides and Hydroxides (Strongly Basic) Oxides and Hydroxides (Feebly)Exception: Ag 2O (active basic oxide)
Halides (soluble; not hydrolyzed) Nearly InsolubleException: Silver Halides (readily hydrolyzed; formbasic salts)
Univalent (One Series of Compounds) Silver (I) and Gold (I and III) one series eachSimple Cations, never in complex anions and doesnot form complex cations w/ NH 3.
Form Complex AnionsForms Complex Cations w/ NH 3.
Rapidly Oxidized Slowly Oxidized
Group II-A THE ALKALINE EARTH METALS Beryllium (Be), Magnesium (Mg), Calcium (Ca), Strontium (Sr), Barium (Ba) and Radium
(Ra) Definite Metallic Properties (Beryllium least metallic) Good conductors of heat and electricity Magnesium- only one used as a metal Beryllium - rare and costly Calcium, Strontium and Barium too reactive Radium - radioactive species Lose their 2 electrons to form 2+ ions Strong Reducing agents (Exception: Be) Chemical Activity increases as the atomic radium increases (greater bond formation) Combine with oxygen, halogens, nitrogen, sulfur and hydrogen (except Mg) Calcium, Strontium and Barium react with cold water Magnesium reacts with steam (liberates hydrogen gas and forms alkaline solution) Beryllium oxide - amphoteric (presence of an acid (base), it is a base (acid)) Other oxides basic Hydroxides increase base strength (down) Salts
Hydrated with smaller cations; high hydration affinity (greater density of positivecharge)
Group II-B Metals Zinc (Zn), Cadmium (Cd) and Mercury (Hg) Zn and Cd are soft metals Hg - liquid; quicksilver (silver white appearance)

Filled set of d orbitals Terminal Elements
Diamagnetic and colorless Utilize electrons for bonding purposes Oxidation state: +2 Divalent ions (Exception: Hg has a monovalent ion mercurous) Reacts with Halogens, Oxygen, Nitric Acid and common oxidizing agent Forms complex ions (amines, cyano-and halo-) and coordination compounds Forms adherent oxide or basic carbonate coating (prevents oxidation) Zinc galvanized iron Used in alloys (alloys of mercury are called amalgams)
Brass (copper and Zinc) Bronze (copper and Tin)
Oxides and Hydroxides - weak bases (base strength increasing going down)
Zn(OH)2 amphoteric; reacts w/ acid and bases
Group III-A Elements Boron (B), Aluminum (Al), Gallium (Ga), Indium (In) and Thallium (Tl) B and Al most important to pharmacy Al amphoteric, abundant; most common metal and 3 rd most common element (oxygen

transition series) Lanthanides
rare elements (58-71) La through Lu Mixtures hard to separate (similar chemical properties)

stable) Forms compounds with the 2+ and 3+ oxidation states Physical Properties: Typical Metals Reactive chemically and the oxides are basic Uranium fuel; radioactive element
