Two objectives of the course are the removal of student-student competition replacing it with student-content involvement, and the improvement of the level of understanding of organic chemistry. These objectives are approached through a modified Keller plan with a series of study guides and quizzes as the core material. (GS)

This workbook is the second in a series of three that has been integrated into the chemistry curriculum for majors at the University of Vermont. The workbook, which consists of exercises designed to provide undergraduate students with foundation skills in the use of professional literature, is introduced late in a second semester organic chemistry…

Describes a system for the management and analysis of chemical structure-biological activity data wherein the chemical structures, encoded in Wiswesser Line Notation, are checked for accuracy, stored, and retrieved by computer. Unification of description and activity of bio-systems. Structuring data files. (Author)

Describes a semistructured approach to the laboratory situation in organic chemistry. (Author/PEB)

This volume contains chapters 26-31 for the American Chemical Society (ACS) "Modern Chemical Technology" (ChemTeC) instructional material intended to prepare chemical technologists. Chapter 26 reviews oxidation and reduction, including applications in titrations with potassium permanganate and iodometry. Coordination compounds are…

This volume contains chapters 32-39 for the American Chemical Society (ACS) "Modern Chemical Technology" (ChemTeC) instructional materials intended to prepare chemical technologists. The study of organic chemistry is continued as these major topics are considered: alcohols and phenols, alkyl and aryl halides, ethers, aldehydes and…

Provides a broad overview of the major natural removal mechanisms that occur in the environment, including chemical transformations, biological degradation, and physical processes. (Author/BB)

This test measures the capability of a chemical substance to cause mutations in special strains of the bacterium Salmonella. It is quick, taking only forty-eight hours, inexpensive, and reliable. (BB)

Summarized are current analytical techniques used to classify, isolate, resolve, identify, and quantify organic compounds present in drinking water. A variety of methods are described, then drawbacks and advantages are listed, and research needs and future trends are noted. (CS)

A computer program is described for identification of chiral centers in molecules. Essential input to the program includes both atomic and bonding information. The program does not require computer graphic input-output. (BB)
