Realignment of the Under graduate Organic Chemistry Laboratory-Toward a Four Year Under graduate Research Experience
Session Format
Presentation Session (45 minutes)
Location
Room 2903
Abstract for the conference program
The new organic chemistry I laboratory program at Georgia Gwinnett College incorporates green chemistry principles, use of spectroscopic instrumentation, stereochemistry investigation by polarimetry, and use of the Avogadro molecular modeling program. The organic chemistry II laboratory experience has been reworked into a semester-long, multi-step synthesis project. Students work together in research groups, first planning a synthetic route for their target compound and then performing their synthesis.
