On completion of this course, students will be able to- CO121-characterize organic molecules by physical and spectroscopic methods including mp, bp, IR, NMR and chromatography. CO122- demonstrate and apply common laboratory techniques, including refluxing, distillation, steam distillation, recrystallization, vacuum filtration, extraction, thin layer chromatography, column chromatography in the specific synthesis etc. CO123- employ spectrophotometric techniques for the estimations of prescribed biomolecules. |

MARKING INSTRUCTIONS
Organic Synthesis 26 marks
Spectral Problems 14 marks
Spectrophotometric Estimation 15 marks
Viva 15 marks
Total 70 marks
This exercise carries 26 marks. Either 2 one step synthesis or two step synthesis will be allotted to the candidates by lot. The yield, purity, crystallization and recording of m.p. will be given due consideration while awarding marks.
This exercise carries 14 marks. The students may be provided with either spectral problems or data base problems.
This exercise carries 15 marks. Three marks are reserved for the preparatory work, setting up of an instrument and experimental skills. The distribution of remaining 12 marks are as follows.
Correct observation and proper recording 4 marks
Standard curve 4 marks
Result 4 marks
Oral questions shall generally be asked over the work assigned to the candidate. The purpose is to find out as to what extent the candidate has understanding the basic principles of chemistry.
