Microscale organic laboratory: with multistep and multiscale syntheses

Description

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 for use in the macroscale lab. 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, thorough Discussion sections which provide chemical context for each experiment, and multi-step experiments. Notable enhancements to this new edition include a greater focus on the implementation of greener processes (including microwave use) to perform traditional experimentation, and movement of material to the text web site, to further streamline the text. New to this edition • This streamlined edition is available as a Binder Ready Version and Custom product only. • New online chapter 7W, “Advanced laboratory experimentation: sequences D, E. and F” contains content from chapter 7 of the previous edition. • Green chemistry: more discussion around green initiatives has been highlighted and added. A new icon points to green initiatives throughout the text. • A new 36th experiment in chapter 6: a new Suzuki experiment highlights a well-established and green coupling process. • All text content has been edited, clarified and updated to make the narrative more user-friendly and concise, where possible.
