Experimental Design and Optimization: Application to a Grignard ReactionNaoual Bouzidi and Christel Gozzi This 5-week project, which systematically investigates optimizing the synthesis of benzyl-1-cyclopentan-1-ol, constitutes an initiation into research methodology and experimental design to prepare the student-engineer for an industry internship. Other pedagogical goals include experience in synthetic techniques, obtaining reproducible yields, and using quantitative analysis methods. Bouzidi, Naoual; Gozzi, Christel. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 1544.

Probing the Rate-Determining Step of the Claisen–Schmidt Condensation by Competition ReactionsKendrew K. W. Mak, Wing-Fat Chan, Ka-Ying Lung, Wai-Yee Lam, Weng-Cheong Ng, and Siu-Fung Lee This article describes a physical organic experiment to identify the rate-determining step of the ClaisenSchmidt condensation of benzaldehyde and acetophenone by studying the linear free energy relationship.
