I am also willing to work on natural product isolation if you have a specific goal. Design or modification of synthetic laboratory equipment is yet another possible area. I am willing to work on inorganic projects, as related to organometallic chemistry. Structure and confirmation studies through the use of NMR can be performed.
Most synthetic projects require a relatively large time commitment.
Techniques for each synthetic step are usually developed by using model reactions. If you are willing to make such a commitment I am interested in talking with you. Techniques learned here would be useful in doing synthetic work in graduate school or industry. Then if you are still interested we will take on the Senior Project courses, CHM 491 and 492. Depending upon the interest and academic preparation of the student, the projects described here are available and suitable for students from agriculture, biology, chemistry and chemical engineering.
