Demystifying Synthetic Organic Laboratory Techniques or 'Not Voodoo X.4'

For everything you ever need to know about synthetic organic chemistry practical advice and tips: http://chem.chem.rochester.edu/~nvd/?page=home

The site 'Not Voodoo X'  has just been updated http://www2.chem.rochester.edu/~nvd/new/index.php and the Purification section expanded with Distillation techniques http://www2.chem.rochester.edu/~nvd/new/pages/purification.php?page=purify_distillation and further updates will be added. The latest is ‘Flash Column Chromatography’ http://www2.chem.rochester.edu/~nvd/new/pages/chromatography.php?page=flash_column_tips
Please note: Further updates are being made daily and it's best practice to use the original link to see what changes have been made 
http://chem.chem.rochester.edu/~nvd/?page=home and the above 'Not Voodoo X.4' link is only a beta testing version before it's final release.

Another useful US-based Organic, Analytical and General Chemistry learning resource is Chemistry LibreTexts https://chem.libretexts.org/

Of course, don't forget the RSC's own LearnChemistry website http://www.rsc.org/learn-chemistry for excellent resources for learning and teaching.
The RSC interactive Periodic Table app can be accessed from http://www.rsc.org/periodic-table

The latest Synthetic Organic Chemistry iPhone/iPad app to be added is the well-known Organic Syntheses https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/organic-syntheses/id1087152400?mt=8

 

iPhone/Pad Apps

This is my list of iPhone (most iPad also) apps which I have installed on my iPhone and iPad mobile devices, most are free. I do not endorse any apps but Chemistry World, ChemSpider, and RSC Mobile (iOS 10.3.3 for latter) are notable.
I have recently added NMR Solvent Peaks to aid identification of 'unknown peaks'.
Furthermore, see http://molmatinf.com/products.html#valence for a range of 'Molecular Materials Informatics' related apps.
I have also added the USA EPA apps: CompTox Mobile https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/comptox-mobile/id1179517689?mt=8 and m/z EPA CompTox https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/m-z-epa-comptox/id1148436331?mt=8.
Also added is ChemTube3D https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/chemtube3d/id1291952162?mt=8.

Update: The very latest iPhone/iPad apps to be added are the well-known Organic Syntheses https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/organic-syntheses/id1087152400?mt=8 and Isotope Browser by IAEA https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/isotope-browser/id943890538?mt=8

At the first time of compiling this list and posting in 2012, and after later edits and additions, all the links to the apps were still valid. However, since then, some iPhone apps may no longer work (after iOS 12 updates) but will still work using iOS 10. My older iPad 4 still uses iOS 10.3.3 and all the iOS apps work there. If you use a Windows or Mac PC, or Android platform, please check and let me know of any problems with the links, or if any apps are no longer available, also of any appropriate new apps that can be added to the above list. There is still no MyRSC mobile app and so you can save a screen image from the link http://my.rsc.org/home and using Safari on iOS devices and adding the image to the screen of the iOS device. Thank you.
