Synopses & Reviews
This is a laboratory text for the mainstream organic chemistry course taught at both two and four year schools, featuring both microscale experiments and options for scaling up appropriate experiments. It provides complete coverage of organic laboratory experiments and techniques with a strong emphasis on modern laboratory instrumentation, a sharp focus on safety in the lab, excellent pre- and post-lab exercises, and multi-step experiments. There is also another text available by the same authors titled Microscale Techniques for the Organic Lab, Second Edition which has more material on techniques and spectroscopy, but has no experiments.
Synopsis
- The experimental procedure section is divided into the following four subsections allowing you to effortlessly organize your laboratory time: reagents and equipment, reaction conditions, isolations of product,and purification and characterization.
- A prompt in the text indicates that the experimental apparatus involved in that stage of the experiments is shown in the margin of the text. Warning and Cautions are given in boxes and also indicated in the margins.
- This lab manual allows the flexibility of creating one's own scaling sequence without being tied to prescribed set of quantities.
