Semimicro Quantitative Organic Analysis focuses on the analytical phase of research and chemistry of natural products, as well as analysis of gases and methods used in identifying iodine and other substances. The manuscript first offers information on the determination of carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen, and the use of Kjeldahl and Dumas methods in the determination of nitrogen. The book also ponders on the determination of halogens, including the use of ethanolamine-sodium, Carius, and sodium peroxide fusion methods and the Liepert volumetric method for iodine. The publication discusses the determination of sulfur and phosphorus, as well as the alkali-nitrate fusion method for converting organic phosphorus to orthophosphate and Woy's procedure for weighing phosphorus as phosphomolybdic anhydride. The text also reviews the determination of methoxyl and ethoxyl and acetyl groups; determination of neutralization equivalent and molecular weights; and determination of volatile fatty acids. The manuscript is a dependable reference for readers interested in the chemistry of natural products.

This book deals with general information about work in Organic Chemistry Laboratory, viz., safety, first aid, different types of apparatus and their assemblies used for various types of reactions, stirring arrangements, heating techniques and low temperature experiments. Various methods used for purification of organic compounds have been described. Besides the normal technique, the book includes write-up about molecular distillation, chromatography and electrophoresis. Special emphasis has been given to the methods, which can be used for working up of organic reactions. Various methods, which can be used successfully for isolation of products from natural sources, have been incorporated. Emphasis has also been given on the isolation of products from oily mixture using the technique of Liquid-Liquid extraction. Methods for determining the criteria of purity of organic compounds have been discussed. The book also deals with drying and purification of solvents, preparation of spectroscopical grade solvents and HPCL solvents. The preparation of commonly used deuterated solvents (which are used for NMR spectroscopy work) is a special feature of this book.

Embraced by the inside covers' periodic table of elements and table of solutions of acids, the new edition of this introductory text continues to describe laboratory operations in its first part, and experiments in the second. Revisions by Ault (Cornell U.) include detailed instructions for the disposal of waste, and experiments with more interesting compounds (e.g. seven reactions of vanillin, and isolating ibuprofin from ibuprofin tablets). Conscious of costs, microscale experiments are included but not to the point where minuscule amounts of material will preclude the aesthetic pleasure of watching crystals form or distillates collect.
