In this laboratory textbook for students of organic chemistry, experiments are designed to utilize microscale glassware and equipment. The textbook features a large number of traditional organic reactions and syntheses, as well as the isolation of natural products and experiments with a biological or health sciences focus. The organization of the text is based on essays and topics of current interest. The lab manual contains a comprehensive treatment of laboratory techniques.
Overall a great guide to organic chemistry lab. Each lab is detailed enough to make it run like clockwork. There is even a section of the book devoted to lab techniques: a how to guide for the novice.
