AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
COURSE AIMS:
By using a combination of lectures, tutorials, laboratory classes and presentations, this
course aims
1 To recall basic concepts of organic chemistry
2 Able to describe the isomerism and stereochemistry
3 Acquired skills to understand the chemistry of hydroxyl group containing
compounds
4 Laboratory classes will build up the concepts while going through preparation and
doing mini projects of hydroxyl group containing compounds
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Dr
Seemal
Jelani
Chem-260 2016
1
Students should be able to exhibit a knowledge and understanding of the basic
facts and experimental basis of organic chemistry.
2 They should be able to solve problems of a numerical and logical nature in the
context of this understanding and be able to demonstrate practical skills in
techniques in organic chemistry.

LABORATORY CLASSES
Dr
Seemal
Jelani
Chem-260 2016
The program of laboratory classes and field work is designated to:
 Support and augment the theoretical background covered in the lecture modules.
 Teach safe working practices in the chemical laboratory.
 Develop the necessary technical skills for the organic chemist.
 Provide hands on experience in the use of a range of analytical instruments.
 Teach analytical techniques for the organic chemist.
 Develop independence and initiative.
 Develop the skills of statistical analysis
 Teach skills in the interpretation of data.
 Develop report writing skills.
DEPARTMENTAL REQUIREMENTS FOR THE AWARD OF CREDIT
 The class work comprises all lectures, laboratory classes, tutorials and tests are
compulsory.
 The minimum requirement to qualify for credit for the course will normally be:
a) Attendance at 75% of laboratory classes, including competitions.
b) Completion and submission of work equivalent to 75% of the
laboratory marks.
c) Completion of both class exams
 Failure to meet these requirements will result in credit for the course being
refused. Medical or compassionate grounds for non-completion may be taken
into account at the discretion of the examination board, but these cannot be use
to excuse failure to complete more than 50% of the
course work.
 Attendance will be reviewed continuously and students whose performance falls
below will be notified
ABSENCE FROM CLASSES
 Any student who is absent from any part of the course should follow the
procedure laid down in the University Student Absence Policy:
IMPORTANT
 The laboratory work and other continuously assessed work is an integral part of
the course and marks gained constitute allocated age of the final grade.
PLAGIARISM
 Students are reminded that this regulation applies to all work contributing to
assessment, including lab reports and projects. All assessed work must be your
own individual effort. Copying of lab reports, for example, is plagiarism. You may
share data, where appropriate, but the calculations, answers to assignment
questions and the discussion of results must be your own work. You need not

cite references to textbooks used to answer assignment questions but you
should follow the above rules when writing an extended discussion of results.
All work submitted for assessment must be accompanied by a completed
Declaration of Originality
Copies of these forms will be available in office of the instructor
STUDENT FEEDBACK
Students’ opinion on course content and presentation is welcomed either
formally or through the coordinator. Feedback is obtained through formal
questionnaires and informal discussion sessions
