Advanced Organic/Inorganic Laboratory

Undergraduate / Graduate

This course combines a project approach with exposure to the more advanced techniques of organic and inorganic chemistry. Multistep synthesis, the synthesis of air-sensitive compounds, advanced chromatographic and spectroscopic characterization of products, and the handling of reactive intermediates are a part of the lab. Students who have previously taken Chem 299 in conjunction with conducting experimental research in organic or inorganic chemistry may, in certain circumstances, substitute the Chem 227 degree requirement with their Chem 299 credit. If this applies and is of interest to you, please contact The Director of Undergraduate Studies (chem-dus@lists.uchicago.edu) as soon as possible to discuss your situation.
