This laboratory course supplements the lecture course Organic Chemistry and provides students learning experience in hands on experimental techniques. The course covers basic experimental skills in organic chemistry, including the synthesis of common organic compounds, the selection of synthetic route, and the characterization of organic compounds. Students observe and record experimental phenomena, identify problems, analyse problems, and develop problem-solving skills.

CILO-1: Develop experimental techniques of organic synthesis, purification, and characterization through hands on experiments. CILO-2: Describe related properties of organic molecules. CILO-3: Operate organic chemistry experiments following proper laboratory safety practices. CILO-4: Describe properties of organic compounds and chemical reactivity of functional groups. CILO-5: Practise common purification methods and characterization technique. CILO-6: Select the synthetic route of organic compounds. CILO-7: Record experimental procedures clearly and analyze results effectively. CILO-8: Examine experimental data to reach sound conclusions about chemical phenomena. CILO-9: Operate general chemistry experiments with good laboratory skills to achieve high-quality and reproducible results. CILO-10: Meaningfully connect laboratory activities to models and concepts learned in Organic Chemistry.
