Objectives: The activities associated
with this course are designed to provide students an understanding of the
fundamental principles of organic chemistry and to foster the ability to solve
problems, to write and speak clearly, and to think critically and creatively.
Description: This
course will be concerned with the knowledge and understanding of the
fundamental theories and practices of organic chemistry sufficient for
subsequent entry into programs/courses requiring an organic chemistry
competency, the workforce, or graduate professional programs of study. Emphasis
will be placed on classification of compounds, names and structures, reactions,
synthesis and mechanism; introductory spectroscopy and bio-organic
topics.
Lab
safety: Students must follow all
written and verbal instructions regarding safe lab procedures. A written copy
of lab safety policies will be provided. Failure to comply with these rules may
result in dismissal from the lab. Eye protection must be worn at all times in
the lab. Personal electronic devices such as cell phones and pagers should not
be brought to the lab with you.
Format: The
conventional lecture format will be the primary teaching method employed in
this course. Because of the importance of the literature data in
chemistry, students should bring the class text book
to each class meeting to allow for participation in group problem-solving
sessions.
Lab will
begin with a briefing in a classroom to be designated by the instructor.
Please read your lab and be prepared with any questions you have regarding the
procedure or the written report. During the lab period please concentrate first
on completing the required experimental procedures, measurements, and
observations. Calculations and questions are a secondary priority if they can
be done outside the lab period. These priorities are essential if labs are to
be completed. Information for each experiment must be recorded in the lab
notebook and initialed by the instructor prior to leaving lab. Reports to turn
in will be written from the information recorded in the lab notebook. The
format for notebooks and written reports will be provided for each experiment.
Because of the importance of the safety in chemistry, students should bring lab coat and appropriate safety
eyewear. All the experiments will be
described in a quad ruler bound notebook (available from the
instructor).
Any
student with a documented learning, physical, chronic health, psychological,
visual or hearing disability needing academic adjustments is requested to speak
directly to Disability Support Services and the instructor, as early in the
semester (preferably within the first week) as possible. All discussions
will remain confidential. Please contact Disability Support Services, DF Lowry Building, Room 103 or call 910-521-6695.
While exposure to chemicals commonly
encountered in a university laboratory setting pose no or low risk to an adult,
they can pose a significantly higher level of hazard to a fetus. Many of these
hazards are not well studied, and it is not known what exposure level is safe
for a fetus. It is therefore prudent for pregnant women to limit the
unnecessary exposure of a fetus to any chemicals. This is especially true if
the chemicals are mutagenic (causes damage to chromosomes) or teratogenic (causes birth defects and/or fetal death).
If you have recently become pregnant or
anticipating becoming pregnant while you are enrolled in a laboratory course,
please inform your laboratory instructor and s/he will provide, upon request,
the Material Safety Data Sheets for the chemicals you will be exposed to during
this course. You can then discuss with your physician the potential hazards
these chemicals pose to the fetus in order to make a choice as to whether or not
to stay enrolled in the laboratory course during your pregnancy.
Evaluation/Grading:
Graded assignments will be scored on a
100-point scale. Letter grades for the course will be assigned according to the
following scale:
100-95=A, 94-90=A-, 89-87=B+, 86-83=B, 82-80=B-, 79-77=C+, 76-73=C, 72-70=C-,
69-67=D+, 66-63=D, 62-60=D-, 59 and below=F. These letter grades will
then be converted to the 4-point QPA scale by the University Registrar's Office
prior to being recorded on student transcripts (see p. 42 of the UNCP catalog).
Class(75%): Graded
assignments for this course will include four preterm tests (60%) and a
comprehensive final exam (15%).
Pertinent questions and problems will frequently be suggested for work
outside of class, though submission of these assignments is not required.
Lab (25%): Graded
assignments for this course will include the lab reports (60%), notebook (10%)
a midterm test (15%) and a final exam (15%). All lab reports are due the next week following the
experiment. For each day of delay you lose 10% of the
grade. Now lab report will be do after 10 days. Pertinent questions and
problems will frequently be suggested for work outside of class, though
submission of these assignments is not required.
Attendance: Poor
attendance typically results in poor performance on graded assignments and,
consequently, low course grades. Though attendance per se is not
factored into this course's grading scheme, students will be required to sign
an attendance roster at each class meeting for purely bookkeeping purposes. Attendance at all scheduled lab sessions is required.
There will be no make up labs. If absence is unavoidable excuses must be
written and submitted one week prior to or following the absence. Additional
documentation may be required. Unavoidable absences are considered for personal
or immediate family illness, death in the immediate family, or business
commitments that are verified by your employer in writing. Missed labs that do
not meet the above criteria will result in a grade of Ò0Ó. No student will
receive credit for the lab if he or she misses in excess of two lab periods.
For religious holiday policy please refer to the following website for details:
http://www.uncp.edu/chem_phy/religiousholidaypolicy.pdf.
Honor Code: Students are expected to follow the UNCP Honor Code (see pp.
51-53 of the UNCP catalog); settled cases
involving first-offense violation of the Honor Code will result in a minimum
penalty of course failure. Notes or book are not allowed during the test. Only
material provided by the instructor can be used during the test.
