Syllabus

Detection of elements (N, S, Halogens) in organic Compounds, Detection of functional groups: amine, amide, alcohol, phenol, nitro compounds, carboxylic acid, aldehyde, ketone, unsaturation, Monosaccarides etc., Derivative preparation (amide, acid, anilide, ester, picrate, hydrazone, semicarbazone, 2, 4-DNP, Osazone etc.), Crystallization of derivatives and characterization using melting point comparison.

To get practical skills to perform relevant chemical tests, interpretation of results, and understanding the underlying principles.

To relate the knowledge gained in theory to practical laboratory experiments

CO1: Students will gain basic level scientific and practical understanding of chemistry of organic functional group.
CO2: Students will learn practical skills to perform relevant chemical tests, interpretation of results to deduce the presence or absence of specific functional groups and understanding the underlying principles.
CO3: 5. Students will learn basic laboratory techniques, such as handling chemicals, using glassware, and performing simple reactions.
