Synthesis of Ketones (an interactive tutorial on the Claisen reaction and
synthesis of ketones from beta-ketoesters.)
I got 11 wrong answers in the 9 parts of the 3 hour online tutorial, mainly because some maniac was constantly talking to me. Junks are a menace.
This tutorial requires the Flash 4 plug-in:
http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash
To go through the whole tutorial should take a total of a couple of hours after which you should understand the following topics:
-- Using beta-ketoacids in the synthesis of ketones.
-- Mechanism of the Claisen reaction, the reversibility of the Claisen reaction and the choice of base.
-- The Dieckmann condensation and the position of equilibrium in the condensation.
-- The reverse Claisen, which can be used to give acids.
-- The easy decarboxylation of beta-ketoacids.
-- Retrosynthesis applied to ketones which are synthesised from beta-ketoacids.

I advise to download MDL's FREE chemical structure visualization plug-in for Windows and Macintosh, to be able to enjoy the full experience of all the links on this page:
http://www.mdlchime.com/chime/  CHIME.
And then (you already downloaded Flash 4 plug-in? See above) you should
click the Pre-University Chemistry Course link. And then the rest of ALL the links.
Keeps you busy for a few days, but it is worth it!

LCS is a chemistry and data analysis program. LCS isn't a chemistry
education program. It's a program for your daily laboratory work.
LCS supports an enormous range of chemical, numerical und statistical
functions. I believe, you´ve never seen such a comprehensive chemistry
program as FREEWARE. (He's not exagerating!)
And there is MUCH more to download.

SUPPORT:
It is highly important to us that you feel absolutely comfortable with your new Chemspeed synthesizer in order to achieve a maximum productivity.
Our Support Department will help you to use your new Chemspeed instrumentation in the most efficient way. Our services include:
Coaching on the system
Detailed training is included with the purchase of our systems. Our experienced support chemists will coach you on your system. At the conclusion of the training, you will be able to directly program your chemistry applications and to run them efficiently.
Lease a chemist
As an additional service we offer to "rent " one of or highly trained support chemist for a limited time to you, supporting you in transferring classical chemistry to parallel synthesis. He will program and subsequently run your entire multi parallel chemical reactions on your Chemspeed synthesizer.
Excellence in after sales support
We will assist you, by phone or if necessary in house, as soon you need our help or advice in all technical and application related matters. We provide worldwide support of all our systems within 24 hours of your call.

BASICS of DISTILLATION:
http://www.buchi.com/cgi-win/buchi4.exe?todo=appcheck&trai=BASICDEN.PDF
Remember the first time you ever boiled water? You will certainly have noticed how the steam formed running droplets, i.e. condensed, on nearby surfaces. This was your first distillation. In the following report you will learn how to carry out distillations more scientific.
DETERMINATION of MELTING and BOILING POINTS:
http://www.buchi.com/cgi-win/buchi4.exe?todo=appcheck&trai=Meltinen.pdf
Every substance has its own physical characteristics such as melting point and boiling point. The determination of the melting point is a simple and fast method which indicates roughly the purity of the substance.
DISTILLATION and ENVIRONMENT:
http://www.buchi.com/cgi-win/buchi4.exe?todo=appcheck&trai=ENVIROEN.PDF
World-wide around 200,000 rotary evaporators and just as many static glass systems are in use. Taking a distillate loss rate of 10%, this adds up to an immense amount of 160,000 litres of solvent polluting the laboratory air and the environment every day. What are the reasons of these solvent losses?
DISTILLATION with ROTARY EVAPORATORS:
http://www.buchi.com/cgi-win/buchi4.exe?todo=appcheck&trai=ROTARYEN.PDF
A rotary evaporator is a specially designed instrument for the evaporation of solvent (single-stage or straight distillation) under vacuum. The evaporator consists of a heating bath with a rotating flask, where the liquid is distributed as a thin film over the hot glass surface and evaporates easily.
PERIPHERY/VACUUM GENERATION and REGULATION:
http://www.buchi.com/cgi-win/buchi4.exe?todo=appcheck&trai=VACUUMEN.PDF
Are you working with a rotary evaporator? Vacuum generation and vacuum control would optimize the operation mode. How are these instruments used?
SAFETY AGAINST EXPLOSION ACCIDENTS:
http://www.buchi.com/cgi-win/buchi4.exe?todo=appcheck&trai=EXPLOSEN.PDF
When working with combustible materials, the presence of an ignition source entails the danger of an explosion. Its effect is uncontrollable, it might endanger people and destroy material values. Electric appliances and tools used in dangerous areas, are potential sources of ignition. It is important to take measures against the risk of ignition.
THERE ARE a few more TRAINING FILES there.
BTW, this is a real ROTARY EVAPORATOR:



Distil up to 20 litres of solvent efficiently and gently.
The new Büchi Rotavapor® R-220 is designed for rapid, efficient evaporation of sample volumes up to 20 litres. Its broad temperature range from +20° C to +180° C opens up a wide range of applications and ist modular design makes it possible to fully adapt the Rotavapor® to your individual needs. Its superior cost-to-benefit ratio also makes the R-220 a most attractive economic investment.
This is the "small" one:
