Catalog : CHEM.5220L Organic Synthesis and Characterization Laboratory

Id: 041227 Credits Min: 3 Credits Max: 3

Description

An advanced project-based organic chemistry laboratory course. Students will separate mixtures of compounds by chromatographic methods, elucidate structures using spectroscopic techniques and consult the chemical literature to design and execute a multi-step synthesis. Students will also propose a multi-step synthesis of a compound of interest. Emphasis on laboratory work with a discussion of theoretical background.
