Organic Chemistry Lab II (235-B-100)

Instructors

Derek Ward Nelson

Meeting Info

Tech Institute Lecture Room 4: Sa 9:00AM - 1:00PM

Overview of class

Complete laboratory experiments focusing on standard synthetic organic chemistry will be conducted each week. Students will complete a prelab worksheet including stoichiometric calculations, prediction of reaction outcome, and identification of safety protocols. During lab sessions, experimental work including chemical measurement, reaction setup/workup, and product purification will be performed. Product characterization using spectroscopic techniques will be required. Reports from experimental work will be reported in formal lab reports following guidelines from peer-reviewed journals.

This course should be taken concurrently with CHEM 215-B.

Registration Requirements

Prerequisite: completion of CHEM 215-A and CHEM 235-A with a grade of C- or better.
