Additional Accessibility Information
-
All (or substantially all) textual matter is arranged in a single logical reading order (including text that is visually presented as separate from the main text flow, e.g., in boxouts, captions, tables, footnotes, endnotes, citations, etc.). Non-textual content is also linked from within this logical reading order. (Purely decorative non-text content can be ignored).
-
The language of the text has been specified (e.g., via the HTML or XML lang attribute) to optimise text-to-speech (and other alternative renderings), both at the whole document level and, where appropriate, for individual words, phrases or passages in a different language.
-
For readers with color vision deficiency, use of color (e.g., in diagrams, graphics and charts, in prompts, or on buttons inviting a response) is not the sole means of graphical distinction or of conveying information
-
Content is enhanced with ARIA roles to optimize organization and facilitate navigation
-
Where interactive content is included in the product, controls are provided (e.g., for speed, pause and resume, reset) and labelled to make their use clear.
-
Content provides explanations for unusual words, abbreviations, acronyms, idioms, jargon in an accessible form, such as glossaries, scripted pop-ups.
-
WCAG v2.2
Product Content
-
Content includes any type of illustrations.
-
The primary content is text.
-
Content includes a significant number of actionable (clickable) cross-references, hyperlinked notes and annotations, or with other actionable links between largely textual elements (e.g., quiz/test questions, ‘choose your own ending’, etc.).
-
Additional text not part of main content
-
Content includes figures, diagrams, charts and/or graphs, including other ‘mechanical’ (i.e. non-photographic) illustrations.
-
Content includes mathematical notations, formulae.

This product relies on 3rd party tooling which may impact the accessibility features visible in inspection copies. All accessibility features mentioned would be present in the purchased version of the title.
This lab manual offers students the opportunity to learn organic chemistry through a green chemistry lens, resulting in a more sustainable, future-looking course. Lipshutz and Muchalski’s Organic Laboratory Experiments of the Future: Doing Chemistry in Water approaches the subject with experiments, diagrams, and illustrations shaped by student feedback and honed through years of research and laboratory experience.
Organic Laboratory Experiments of the Future: Doing Chemistry in Water includes material on reactions run in water, including but not limited to: ppm Pd-catalyzed couplings, SNAr reactions, nitro group reductions, enzyme-catalyzed reactions, catalytic hydrogenation of olefins, olefin metathesis, reductive aminations, and chemoenzymatic sequences. This lab manual is ideal for courses in organic chemistry, biochemistry, sustainable and green chemistry, and environmentally-responsible lab courses.
Key Features
- Provides practical information and techniques for utilizing green chemistry, and chemistry in water, in particular, in the study of modern organic chemistry.
- Includes numerous figures, examples, illustrative problems, and appendices that reinforce laboratory concepts and methods.
- Features coverage on experiments that focus on chemocatalysis as well as biocatalysis; reactions that include Nobel Prize-winning organometallic chemistry; multi-step sequences involving chemocatalysis, or chemoenzymatic catalysist
