CATALOG COURSE DESCRIPTION:

Continuation of CHE 312.  A qualitative organic analysis course in which both classical and 
instrumental techniques are utilized to elucidate organic structure.

REQUIRED READING MATERIALS  (Title, Author, Publisher, Copyright Date):

Introduction to Organic Laboratory Techniques, Pavia, D.L., Lampman, G.M., and Kriz, G.S., 
3rd Edition, Saunders Publishing Co., 1988.


SPECIFIC (MEASURABLE) STUDENT BEHAVIORAL LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

Upon completion of this course the student should be able to:

1.	Determine appropriate physical properties of organic compounds (e.g., m.p., b.p., 
refractive and ex.).
2.	Obtain and interpret infrared spectra and interpret infrared and NMR spectra.
3.	Determine solubilities of organic compounds in various solvent systems.
4.	Use chemical tests to classify organic compounds according to functional group.
5.	Prepare and purify derivatives of organic compounds.
6.	Use appropriate experimental techniques to determine the structure of organic 
compounds.

OUTLINE OF COURSE CONTENT (Major Topics and Subtopics):

A.	Introduction to Organic Structure Determination
B.	Physical Properties
C.	Solubility Tests
D.	Classification Tests
E.	Spectroscopic Methods
F.	Preparation of Derivatives
G.	Determination of the Structure of Unknowns
H.	Laboratory Examination

EVALUATION OF STUDENT PERFORMANCE:

Students will submit laboratory reports in which unknown organic compounds are identified.  A 
written final examination will be given.  A student's overall grade will be based on grades 
received on laboratory reports and on the final examination.
