Introduction To Organic Laboratory Techniques: A Microscale Approach

Introduction To Organic Laboratory Techniques: A Microscale Approach by Pavia, Donald L.. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780030265662.

This textbook discusses the important laboratory techniques of organic chemistry and illustrates many important reactions and concepts. In the traditional approach to teaching this subject, the quantities of chemicals used were on the order of 5–100 grams, and glassware was designed to contain up to 500 mL of liquid. This scale of experiment we might call a macroscale experiment. The approach used here, a microscale approach, differs from the traditional laboratory course in that nearly all the experiments use small amounts of chemicals.
