Lab Notebook Requirements

• Please refer to Appendix C in the CHML211-212 Laboratory Manual for Organic Chemistry for formatting rules and sample notebook entries.

• Technique experiments are noted with a "T" and synthesis experiments are noted with a "S".  Be sure to use the correct format when preparing notebook.

• Some experiments do not require any entries in the laboratory notebook.  If the experiment is not listed below, no lab notebook entry is required.
