Venable, T. Leon – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
In a two-step synthesis starting with Ni(CH[subscript 3]COO)[subscript 2] ยท4H[subscript 2]O and salicylaldehyde, students prepare Nethyl and N-isopropyl Ni(II) Schiff base (imine) complexes. After isolation and recrystallization, the products are characterized by room-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements, FTIR spectroscopy, and…

Bogucki, Ryan; Greggila, Mary; Mallory, Paul; Feng, Jiansheng; Siman, Kelly; Khakipoor, Banafsheh; King, Hunter; Smith, Adam W. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
Low cost, open-source analytical instrumentation has the potential to increase educational outcomes for students and enable large-scale citizen science projects. Many of these instruments rely on smartphones to collect the data, mainly because they can effectively leverage a dramatic price-to-performance ratio of the optical sensors. However,…

Ealy, Julie B.; Hermanson, Jim – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2006
When students take General Chemistry there are substantially fewer molecular images than they will encounter in Organic Chemistry. The molecular images Organic Chemistry students see in their textbooks are ones that use dashes and wedges to represent 2D and semi 3D views, ball and spoke, ball and wire, and structural formulas, to name just a few.…
