OCHM 316L - Organic Chemistry II (laboratory)

Description
This laboratory course builds upon the concepts learned in Organic Chemistry I lecture and lab, and develops critical thinking and independent problem-solving. The course includes two sections of structural elucidation of organic compounds using analytical techniques Infrared (IR) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Knowledge from lecture will be used to aid the interpretation of quality tests (solubility, oxidation, coordination, reactivity, etc.) to determine functional groups present in unknown solutions. Students will prepare, purify, and characterize novel organic compounds while applying starting material, functional groups, and typical reaction conditions to predict outcomes.
