Ekeley Chemistry, home of the CU Boulder Organic Chemistry Teaching Labs |
The Organic Chemistry lab and lecture courses are the 3000-level, pre-professional organic courses that are required for chemistry majors and pre-medical students as well as disciplines in biology, engineering, kinesiology, and psychology. The lecture courses are taught by the Organic Chemistry faculty on a rotating basis. The organic chemistry laboratories are managed by Patty Feist, the Laboratory Coordinator. Each semester a different organic chemistry faculty member oversees the laboratory courses. The laboratory classes and recitations for lecture are taught by Teaching Assistants.
The Organic Chemistry Teaching Laboratories are located in the basement of Ekeley Chemistry, rooms 1B25, 27, 72, and 73. The Stockroom and Coordinator's Office are in room Ekeley M1B48. This is the hub of the Organic Chemistry Teaching Labs; feel free to stop by anytime with questions.
Although this web site publishes the syllabi for all courses, don't miss a major section of this site: pictorial walk-throughs of organic laboratory techniques: distillation, melting point determination, extraction, and so on. Another section is devoted to IR and NMR spectroscopy.
