CIT Assignment 2011

The CIT assignment is an exercise which is designed to help you gain experience in gathering information on a given molecule. This is something which you will need to be able to do in order to do well in coursework while studying Chemistry, and in a wider context, is a skill which will be invaluable to you should you decide to take up a career in research.

The deadlines for submission of the assignment are different for each group - PLEASE make note of when your deadline falls:

  • Group A1: Thursday 1st December 2011, 12noon
  • Group A2: Thursday 8th December 2011, 12noon
  • Group B1: Monday 28th November 2011, 12noon
  • Group B2: Monday 5th December 2011, 12noon

Deadlines are two weeks after your second workshop session at midday, 12noon. You are free to start your assignment as soon as you wish, and can submit it any time up to the deadline, however feedback will only be delivered once everyone has submitted.

Details of the assignment

Your task is to produce a brief report on a given molecule (no more than three sides A4), finding relevant information including its physical data, a route to synthesise the molecule, and one reaction of importance for this molecule. All information should be appropriately cited from a creditable primary or secondary resource.
