CHEM150 PO - Advanced Synthesis Laboratory

When Offered: Each Spring
Instructor(s): N. Ball
Credit: 0.5

How are molecules made? How do I design new or better reactions? In this laboratory-based course we will expand on fundamental skills gleaned from other introductory chemistry courses toward state-of-the-art techniques used in chemical research. Students will be guided through research methods such as air-free technique, chromatography, spectroscopy, and reaction design toward research goals designed by the students and instructor. Preference will be given for juniors and seniors, but sophomores are welcome provided space is available. Prerequisites: CHEM110B
