Use of the Chemical Literature as a Template To Probe Stereoselective Reactions by NMR
Thomas P. Clausen , Thomas K. Green and Benjamin SteinerJournal of Chemical Education2008 85 (5), 692Use of the Chemical Literature as a Template To Probe Stereoselective Reactions by NMR
Thomas P. Clausen , Thomas K. Green and Benjamin SteinerJournal of Chemical Education2008 85 (5), 692In teaching organic chemistry laboratory at this university, we eliminated the use of "canned" experiments from textbooks. Instead, we present students with literature studies that form the basis of developing new unpublished experiments to answer ...

John J. Esteb and Matthew B. StocktonJournal of Chemical Education2003 80 (12), 1446An experiment involving the Claisen condensation reaction for a first-year organic chemistry laboratory is presented. Claisen condensations are routinely covered in organic textbooks but owing to the long reaction times required to reach equilibrium in ...
