070111180 PHARMACEUTICAL ORGANIC CHEMISTRY I LAB ( 1 Crd.Hrs )

Pre-Requisites : 070111170

This laboratory based course is complementary part to the theoretical lectures. The course introduces the students to safety rules and methodologies in handling chemicals and conducting experiments. It provides the students with important knowledge to acquire good practical skills in the study of the structure, properties, and reactions of organic compounds and to determine the chemical composition and the chemical constitution of organic compounds and materials. This course will cover practical applications of various methods and techniques used for the identification of functional groups of organic compounds of pharmaceutical interest, giving more attention toward chemical identification. This course provides the students with some organic preparative reactions and synthesis of some important pharmaceutical organic compounds such as carboxylic acids, ester, aldol condensation, Electrophilic aromatic substitution, etc. The course also involves multiple step syntheses.
