Lab Text:
“CEM 255 Organic Chemistry Laboratory Manual – 7th Edition",
A. Azadnia, Hayden- McNeil Publishing, Inc., 2013
Safety Supplies: Approved splash proof safety goggles (ANSI 279.1 1979) and
rubber "dish washing" gloves. A rubber or plastic apron is also encouraged.
Supplementary Readings:
A 251-252 text, Any Organic Chemistry Text
Miscellaneous: Any bound notebook with duplicate pre-numbered pages and
carbon paper (comes as a bundle with the lab manual). The perforated
carbon copies will be torn out and submitted at the end of each lab. Also, a
ballpoint pen (not pencil) is needed for lab reports.
Course Description:
Material covered in lecture courses is based on experimental data accumulated
over the years, which has been systematized into natural laws and theories.
However, the study of chemistry (or any science) requires that you learn some
laboratory techniques and methods of data acquisition. It is intended that the skills
acquired in this course will be of practical value to you in your fields of interest. It is
hoped that a "hands on" experience also will enable you to grasp the concepts
presented in CEM 252 lecture more readily.
Office Hours: by appointment, [email protected]
Lecture Time:
Thursdays 4:00–4:50 PM, Room N130 Business College Complex
Grading
Experiments will be graded according to the weight scale on the schedule below.
Major or continual violations of safety rules will result in dismissal from lab without any points
and/or reduction of grade by 50 points per occurrence.
The grades will be based on accuracy and completeness of recorded observations and data as well as
legibility (neatness counts).
The grading procedure for each experiment will be discussed in class during the Thursday lectures
(4:10-5 PM) prior to the corresponding lab.
Your final grade will be based on the total points earned as follow:
965-1060 = 4.0
890-964 = 3.5
816-889 = 3.0
742-815 = 2.5
636-741 = 2.0
All CEM 255 students must get trained on the 300 MHz NMR instrument by no later than Friday,
February 20, 2015. There will be a 45–point penalty for anyone who does not get trained/checked
out by the due date.
The sign-up sheets will be outside of room 125 Chemistry on Thursday, January 22, 2015.
Students with “pacemakers” MUST not enter room 125 due to the health hazards such
as DEATH, and therefore, would be excused from doing the NMR-training/check out.
See me in person immediately if you have a pacemaker.
Absences
Because our teaching staff is being used to capacity, there will be
NO MAKE-UP LABORATORY, except for special circumstances,
which will be decided on an individual basis. If you are unavoidably
absent from a laboratory class due to illness or family crisis, contact
Dr. Azadnia as soon as possible. A grade of zero will be assigned for
an experiment missed regardless of the reason. However, you may
be allowed to make up the missed lab so long as you make
arrangement with Dr. Azadnia within one week of the corresponding
experiment.
Students who miss three or more sessions due to illness, etc.
should drop CEM 255 and re-enroll another term. Incomplete grades
CANNOT be issued when three or more labs have been missed. If
you drop CEM255 course, you still must be checked out of lab by
your lab TA, on or before your last scheduled lab section. Failure to
check out properly costs $25.00 plus breakage charges. No CEM
255 lockers will be shared. If you believe someone has access to
your locker, exchange your lock at the stockroom (room 133).
Write-ups
Your Lab Manual is not to be used in the lab. You must work from
your own procedures written in your lab notebook.
An important laboratory skill is the making and writing down of
precise observations. A well-kept notebook is an essential part of any
investigation. Your notebook should be a complete description of what
happened, or didn't happen, in your experiments. If someone else
could repeat your experiment and get identical results using only the
notebook for directions, then your notes are thorough. A well-kept set
of records is an essential part of any investigation. Take notes as if you
expected to repeat the work next term using only your own notes.
Before entering the laboratory, you should familiarize yourself with
the experiment by studying the Lab Manual and the corresponding
chapter in your organic textbook. Experience has shown that those
students who rewrite the procedure as numbered, single operation
steps directly in their notebooks encounter fewer problems. If this is
done in advance, then only observations and changes must be
recorded during the experiment. Keep track of your progress by
checking off the steps as you do them. Carbon copies of all prelab and
in-lab write-ups are to be submitted, along with any products, as you
leave the laboratory.

If you drop the course, you still must be checked out of lab by your lab TA, on or before your last
scheduled lab– section. Failure to check out properly costs $25.00 plus breakage charges. No CEM 255
lockers will be shared.

Firm footwear is required
(NO sandals, NO open-toed shoes)
Long pants that cover the entire leg must be worn at all
times (NO shorts, NO skirts)
Safety Goggles must
ALWAYS be worn in the lab
The dress code will be strictly enforced!
2. SAFETY EQUIPMENT
Every student MUST do all they can to prevent accidents in their own work

emergency aids are available.
Laboratory Safety Regulations
2. SAFETY EQUIPMENT
Every student MUST do all they can to prevent accidents in their own work and they must be
prepared for accidents by knowing in advance what emergency aids are available.
The laboratory is equipped with several type of safety equipment and it is essential that you
become familiar with the location and the operation of these tools.
a.
Emergency Shower: There is an emergency shower located on the hallway. It is for use
when corrosive liquids have spilled over large areas of clothes and skin, or when clothing is
on fire.
b.
Eye Wash Stations: The laboratory is equipped with eye wash stations. These stations
dispense water and provide thorough irrigation of the eyes and face in the event a person is
splashed with an irritating chemical. The contaminated body part should be rinsed for a
minimum of 15 minutes.
c.
Fire Extinguisher: The fire extinguisher is located outside the laboratory. Know its
location and how to operate it. It is very effective for fires involving organic liquids and
electrical fires. If a fire extinguisher is used it must be given to the laboratory coordinator for
recharging. Small fires in test tubes, beakers etc can usually be smothered by covering
with a watch glass.
In any case, REPORT all accident to your instructor immediately
Laboratory Safety Regulations
1. Absolutely NO EATING or DRINKING is permitted in the lab.
2. Waste Disposal
Please place the waste materials in the appropriate containers. If you are unsure,
make sure you ASK your instructor .
For this lab you should expect to have both solid and liquid waste containers, placed
separately in different containers inside the last fume hood.

The different arrangements of atoms that result from bond rotation are called
conformations, and molecules that have different arrangements are called conformational isomers, or conformers. Unlike constitutional isomers, however, different conformers often can’t be isolated because they interconvert too rapidly.
Conformational isomers are represented in two ways, as shown in Figure
3.6. A sawhorse representation views the carbon–carbon bond from an oblique
angle and indicates spatial orientation by showing all C ! H bonds. A Newman
projection views the carbon–carbon bond directly end-on and represents the
two carbon atoms by a circle. Bonds attached to the front carbon are Ring-flip
represented by lines to the center of the circle, and bonds attached to the rear carbon
are represented by lines to the edge of the circle.

Stereoisomers (Section 4.2) are compounds whose atoms are
connected in the same order but with a different spatial arrangement.
Among the kinds of stereoisomers we’ve seen are enantiomers, diastereomers, and cis–trans isomers of cycloalkanes. Actually, cis–trans isomers
are just a subclass of diastereomers because they are non–mirror-image

The extra 12 kJ/mol of energy present in the eclipsed conformation of ethane
is called torsional strain. Its cause has been the subject of controversy, but the
major factor is an interaction between C ! H bonding orbitals on one carbon with
antibonding orbitals on the adjacent carbon, which stabilizes the staggered conformation relative to the eclipsed one. Because the total strain of 12 kJ/mol arises
from three equal hydrogen–hydrogen
