New Edition Now Available! This Organic Chemistry Laboratory Manual is a compilation of basic techniques and classic chemical reactions studied during two semesters of Organic Chemistry. The manual is designed to accompany Organic Chemistry Lecture and is geared towards students who require the subject to advance in majors such as Chemistry, Biochemistry, Biology and Neuroscience. Students will learn techniques such as separation, extraction, recrystallization, and distillation; assay product purity and determine compounds' identity based on melting and boiling points, refractive index, infrared spectroscopy, gas chromatography and nuclear magnetic resonance; set-up Nobel Prize winning reactions such as Grignard and Diels-Alder, and other classic syntheses. Each experiment consists of a brief introduction and theory section with detailed mechanistic explanations. The procedure is condensed to a numbered list of easy to follow instructions and the lab report guide section prompts students to answer questions aiding them in writing a well-rounded report. It also encourages them to research the topic using outside resources. Finally, pre-lab and post-lab questions in each experiment will assist students completing their preparation for each lab, gaining a better understanding of what was accomplished, and aiding in interpretation of results.
