Project Evaluation Chem 373, 2016 – This form is intended to help you and me evaluate your work on the project you tackled during the second half of the semester. As such, please take time to answer the following questions as fully as possible. Feel free to use more space then provided. I hope this will be valuable to you in terms of seeing what you were able to accomplish and where the roadblocks were. The information you provide will also be absolutely vital in shaping the class for the future. This is a dynamically evolving class and your input is very important to me and future students. Please type your responses and use ChemDraw to illustrate all reactions. 1) Along with emailing me this form, please give me a hard copy along with your notebook and spectra as well as electronic copies of all literature referenced. Make sure the spectra are properly annotated as laid out in the syllabus and discussed in class. 2) Please write out the synthesis you intended to perform. Please make this scheme as complete as possible, including temperatures, reaction times, solvents, etc. 3) Please write out the synthesis as you performed it, writing out only steps you successfully completed. Please make this scheme as complete as possible, including temperatures, reaction times, solvents, etc. Below each step also write how long it took you to complete and give the notebook page number(s). For each successfully completed step, include an experimental section written in the ACS style. 4) Please list any time-consuming procedures you performed which do not fit neatly into a reaction scheme. of things like purification of starting materials, performing test reactions, etc. Indicate how much I’m thinking time each procedure took. 5) What two things could you have done to make this project proceed more smoothly? 6) What two things could I have done to make this project proceed more smoothly? For the following questions you may find it helpful to be reminded of the definition of the letter College’s grades. A = Excellent B = Good C = Adequate D = Poor F/X = Failing
