    Example: Students must jointly solve the structural formula of the product of an Aldol Condensation in the recitation sesssion.
    C. Laboratory Experiments that safely reinforce topics covered in lecture and also teach organic synthesis, purification and analysis techniques, which test the student’s ability to apply the concepts learned in class and to follow procedures in the laboratory manual, as well as to participate actively in the experiment.
    Example: The laboratory experiment “Martius Yellow” requires the students to synthesize, isolate and purify 6 organic compounds in a complex reaction scheme. This experiment is performed under a laboratory fume hood.
