COURSE DESCRIPTION

Course objectives

Acquisition of basic knowledge and working skills in organic laboratory, application of laboratory methods and techniques for laboratory synthesis, isolation, characterization and purification of organic compounds.

Course enrolment requirements and entry competences required for the course

Enrolled in or passed the course Organic Chemistry II

Learning outcomes expected at the level of the course (4 to 10 learning outcomes)

After passing the course students will be able to:
- perform independently laboratory exercises according to laboratory procedures
- apply basic laboratory procedures and techniques for synthesis, isolation and purification of organic compounds as well as their characterization and identification
- connect theoretical knowledge gained throughout lectures in organic chemistry with experimental work
- propose basic laboratory procedures in accordance with set-up objectives (organic compound synthesis or isolation)

Course content broken down in detail by weekly class schedule (syllabus)

Exercises (3 hours weekly joined together in 7 lab periods):
1. Nucleophilic substitution at acyl carbon. Acetanilide synthesis. (1 lab period)
2. Electrophilic aromatic substitution. p-Nitroacetanilide synthesis. p-Nitroaniline synthesis. (2 lab periods)
3. Nucleophilic aromatic substitution. Diazotation. Phenol synthesis. (2 lab periods)
4. Nucleophilic addition at carbonyl group. The Cannizzaro reaction – benzyl alcohol and benzoic acid synthesis. (1 lab period)
5. Organic compounds characterization. Determination of physical constants and spectroscopic analysis (UV/VIS and FT-IR spectra recording and interpretation). (1 lab period)

Format of instruction:

Student responsibilities

Students have to complete all planned laboratory exercises (100% of the times scheduled) and active participate in laboratory work.

Screening student work (name the proportion of ECTS credits for eachactivity so that the total number of ECTS credits is equal to the ECTS value of the course):

Class attendance	0.0	Research	0.0	Practical training	0.0
Experimental work	1.0	Report	1.0
Essay	0.0	Seminar essay	0.0
Tests	1.0	Oral exam	0.0
Written exam	0.0	Project	0.0

Grading and evaluating student work in class and at the final exam

Students are evaluated based on their knowledge shown at the tests accompanying exercises and their commitment during experimental work and the results achieved during work in organic-chemistry lab.

Quality assurance methods that ensure the acquisition of exit competences

Monitoring of quality assurance will be performed at three levels:
(1) University Level, conducting surveys of students on teaching quality;
(2) Faculty Level, by Quality Control Committee;
(3) Lecturer’s Level, monitoring and accepting suggestions of students and colleagues
