Text: Experimental Organic Chemistry, Laboratory Manual Fall ‘15, Spring ’16 and Summer ‘16, Weldegirma, Solomon, available at USF bookstore. Laboratory Notebook: Any suitable laboratory notebook with carbon copies. Safety Goggles: American Optical or equivalent (goggles must form a seal around the eyes, not glasses with splash guard. The Rf value included in the results section of this manual states that the Rf Trans-9-(2-phenylethyl) anthracene has a Rf value of 0.213. The mass of the final product is 0.053 g, which results in a percent yield of 33.6%. This percent yield was found during lab when the final product was weighed on the scale and divided by the theoretical yield. CHEM 1007- General Chemistry Lab 1 for UNO.

Many faculty members engage undergraduates in their research. Students must apply to a research faculty to be accepted for enrollment in Loading.... Undergraduates work closely with their faculty mentors, and in some cases experienced Masters students, to answer interesting scientific questions.
Claire Castro and William Karney
Computational Organic Chemistry - use of computational tools to solve problems in organic chemistry, particularly in the fields of Möbius aromaticity and dynamic processes in annulenes.
Osasere Evbuomwan
Inorganic and Analytical Chemistry-development of lanthanide complexes for prostate cancer diagnosis, and image-guided tumor resection via Magnetic Resonance and Optical Imaging properties.
Usf Organic Chemistry Lab Manuals
Lawrence Margerum
Chemical Education and Inorganic Chemistry - development of problem-based laboratory projects and their effect on student learning. Inorganic photochemistry and electrochemistry.
Giovanni Meloni
Physical Chemistry - high-temperature reactions and spectroscopic characterization of reaction intermediates important to atmospheric and combustion chemistry, especially focusing on biofuel molecules.
Ryan West
Nanomaterials and Analytical Chemistry - fabrication of nanostructured interfaces for chemical and biological sensing applications, including electrochemical and plasmonic monitoring of DNA hybridization.
Janet Yang
Biochemistry - thermodynamic and kinetic analyses of ATP Binding Cassette transporters — membrane proteins that regulate the cellular intake of nutrients and export of toxins — using a variety of biochemical and biophysical approaches.
How to Sign-Up
Usf Organic Chemistry
- Complete, or have almost completed, Organic Chemistry II Loading... and Loading....
- Find an available lab and meet with faculty during office hours.
- Attend chemistry department faculty research seminars.
Usf Organic Chemistry Lab Manual Instructions
Typically, but not always, students begin working in a research lab during the summer months.
All majors accepted for research in the department must sign up for at least 1 unit of Loading... during the fall or spring semester.
