This course aims at learning principles and methods for basic experiments in organic chemistry, which are required for conducting research in the laboratory.
By the end of this course, students will be able to:
1) Conduct basic organic experiments required for research in the laboratory.
2) Solve problems when in trouble with basic organic experiments.
3) Describe the aim, results, and discussion of organic experiments clearly.
