Judul: Analisis pengaruh budaya organisasi dan employee engagement terhadap kinerja tenaga pendidikan dan tenaga kependidikan Departemen Manajemen FEM IPB
Abstrak: Departemen Manajemen adalah salah satu pengelola program studi yang terdapat di Fakultas Ekonomi dan Manajemen Institut Pertanian Bogor. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengidentifikasi persepsi karyawan terhadap budaya organisasi, employee engagement dan kinerja, dan menganalisis pengaruh budaya organisasi dan employee engagement terhadap kinerja tenaga pendidik dan tenaga kependidikan departemen manajemen. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode analisis deskriptif, Structural Equation Modelling dengan metode Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS). Berdasarkan hasil analisis deskriptif diperoleh bahwa tenaga pendidik memiliki mean skor yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan tenaga kependidikan, artinya tingkat pengaruh budaya organisasi dan employee engagement tenaga pendidik terhadap kinerja lebih berpengaruh. Untuk hasil uji PLS, budaya organisasi memiliki pengaruh positif dan nyata terhadap pembentukan employee engagement dan budaya organisasi berpengaruh postif dan nyata terhadap peningkatan kinerja. Sementara employee engagement tidak berpengaruh positif dan nyata terhadap peningkatan kinerja tenaga pendidik dan tenaga kependidikan di departemen manajemen FEM IPB.

Judul: Sintesis Flavonol melalui 2’-Hidroksikalkon
Abstrak: Flavonol is a class of flavonoids commonly found in fruits and vegetables. Flavonol is very useful, especially in food sector and health. In this study, flavonol unsubstituted was successfully synthesized from an intermediate material 2’-hydroxychalcone. The 2’-hydroxychalcone was synthesized by Claisen-Schmidt condensation method between o-hydroxyacetophenone and benzaldehyde using 4 different catalysts, namely KOH 60%, solid pellet of KOH-grinding technique, BF3-Et2O, and NaH in DMF. The KOH 60% was the best catalyst, giving the highest yield (57%). Afterward, the flavonol was synthesized in 1-stage oxidation cyclization of o-hydroxyacetophenone using Algar-Flynn-Oyamada (AFO) reaction, giving 76%. The flavonol total yield from 2’-hydroxychalcone was 43%. All synthesized products were characterized by their melting points and their spectra. The success of the synthesis flavonol opens the way to synthesis of useful flavonol derivatives such as quercetin and kaempferol.
