experiments,” reflected Rodriguez Hinojosa. “Once my plans are organized, I set up my experiment in the fume hood and get started on a reaction. My reactions usually are on a smaller scale and require various steps such as heating, stirring, separation, purification, and characterization. Separation consists of vacuum filtration or extraction via a separatory funnel. Purification consists of high vacuum or rotary evaporation, and finally, characterization techniques are Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and FTIR
