Syllabus
The basic practice of organic chemistry have the task to teach students the basics of laboratory techniques and methodology of work in the organic laboratory. Synthetic tasks are chosen so that the students are acquainted with basic chemical operations, and to obtain information on the preparation and properties of organic compounds. Students thus have to supplement the theoretical knowledge from the lectures of organic chemistry. Filling the practice :
1. Basic operations in the organic laboratory: procedures of isolation organic substances; cleaning operations; monitoring the progress of reactions; chromatographic methods
2. Work safety and first aid in the organic laboratory.
3. Laboratory technique : the construction of the apparatus for chemical reaction; mixing; heating; cooling; work under reduced pressure in an inert atmosphere, and if protected from humidity
4. Cleaning and isolation procedures : filtration; washing; extraction; dryingof solids and liquids; crystallization
5. Distillation : simple distillation; distillation under reduced pressure; mastering the work with the rotary vacuum evaporator
6. Thin layer chromatography .
7. The leadership of the working of the protocol. Předmět byl inovován v rámci projektu ESF pro VŠ II na UK, reg. č.: CZ.02.2.69/0.0/0.0/18_056/0013322 The course was innovated within the ESF project for HE II at Charles University, reg. no.: CZ.02.2.69/0.0/0.0/18_056/0013322
