Course Objectives
Planning and conducting organic chemical experiments independently. Maintaining a clear and orderly up-to-date lab journal. Interpreting research data such as TLC, NMR, TLC-MS, HPLC-MS, IR etc. Using analysis apparatuses independently (e.g. TLC-MS, NMR, IR). Presenting the conducted research to fellow students. Performing literature research (Reaxys, Scifinder etc.) and writing a report.
Reading list
Literature will be provided during the course.
Coordinator
Dhr. Dr. R. van den Berg
Mode of instruction
During the course a short research project is conducted, consisting of experimental organic syntheses.
