Laboratory Manual of Organic Chemistry LABORATORY MANUAL of ORGANIC CHEMISTRY BY HARRY L. FlgHER, Ph. D. Instructor in Organic Chemistry, Columbia University FIRST EDITION NEW YORK JOHN WILEY SONS, INC. LONDON CHAPMAN HALL, LIMITED 1920 1RAUNWOHTH CO, BOOK MANUPAOTURIM CLYN. I. V. PREFACE THIS book is the outgrowth of almost ten years of intensive laboratory teaching. Practically all the laboratory experi ments, in mimeograph form, have been in the hands of three different classes tff students, day, night, and summer, each year for over five years, and dXiring this time have been repeatedly corrected. As our classes grew we found it necessary to keep to a definite list of experiments and all our attention was devoted to these. In order to bridge the gap between the particular reac tion studied and allied reactions, many questions were added. These questions have been made the basis of laboratory quizzing and are meant primarily for the student to use for his own ad vancement in the subject to aid him to become his own teacher. A portion of the questions are on the practical work in the laboratory, that is, on the methods of handling apparatus, etc. Many of them will appear to be perfectly obvious. They are nevertheless, put in since it has been noticed that it is the most obvious point which is most often overlooked. The experiments are, in general, the usual ones found in laboratory manuals, changed of course in accordance with our experience, and they were chosen for their teaching value and for the good all-round practical manipulation involved. There are only a few innovations. Menthone and menthone oxime illustrate typical reactions even though their formulas may seem large to the beginner. Glycocoll is prepared byhydrolysis, thus linking up the chemistry of the proteins with that of simpler compounds. Limonene dihydrochloride has tremendous teaching value, and the synthesis of camphor from pinene gives an opportunity for select work in an enticing field. The methods described gi [...] Autor: Harry L. Fisher Wydawnictwo: Ehrsam Press Rok wydania: 2007 Okładka: miękka Liczba stron: 356 Wymiary: 14 x 21.6 cm Język: angielski ISBN: 9781406727821
