On completing this course, you will be able to carry out laboratory operations in synthetic chemistry associated with the synthesis of organic and inorganic compounds. These may include reactions requiring heating, inert atmosphere, use of bio-reagents and handling reactive intermediates. You will be able to work in a safe and responsible fashion, showing consideration for others in the laboratory. You will be able to evaluate the risks inherent in the procedures and formulate appropriate precautions. You will be able to purify the products of the reactions using techniques that may include recrystallisation, column chromatography and distillation under reduced pressure. You will be able to obtain and interpret characterisation data that may include 1H NMR spectroscopy, infra-red spectroscopy, polarimetry and magnetic susceptibility measurement.
