I have acquired solid practical experience in preparative chemistry through hands-on laboratory training. My skills include the use of standard laboratory glassware and experimental setups, such as reflux systems, as well as the execution of key organic reactions including esterification, saponification, organomagnesium reactions, halogenation, and natural product extraction.

I am also experienced in the preparation of aqueous reagents, including acidic and basic solutions, with careful attention to concentration and safety.

I am proficient in a wide range of separation and purification methods routinely used in chemical laboratories, including filtration, decantation, and thin-layer chromatography (TLC).

My training also includes atmospheric and reduced-pressure distillation, the use of a rotary evaporator, recrystallization techniques, and column chromatography for compound purification.

I am familiar with both qualitative and quantitative characterization approaches based on physical and chemical properties. These include melting point analysis using a Kofler bench, polarimetry, qualitative colorimetric and precipitation tests, as well as semi-quantitative and quantitative chromatographic analyses (HPLC and GC).

Structural characterization is performed using spectroscopic techniques, with a focus on data interpretation and analytical reliability.

I have practical experience in various quantitative analytical methods, including:

• Colorimetric titrations
• pH-metric titrations
• Iodometric titrations
• Conductimetric analysis
• Redox titrations
• Gravimetric analysis

I am trained in the use and interpretation of major spectroscopic methods, including:

• UV–Visible spectroscopy
• Infrared (IR) spectroscopy
• Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (¹H and ¹³C NMR)

These techniques have been applied to the identification and structural characterization of organic molecules.

I am experienced in maintaining accurate laboratory notebooks and producing structured experimental reports and oral presentations. My training includes:

• Organic molecule characterization using IR and NMR
• Introduction to chromatographic techniques (TLC, HPLC, GC)
• Purification methods (recrystallization, filtration, distillation, separation)
• Fundamental organic reactions (substitution, addition, elimination)
• Chemical principles including acid–base equilibria, redox reactions, and chemical equilibrium
• Core principles of spectroscopy

My background also includes applied techniques in chemical engineering and physicochemical analysis, such as:

• Viscosity measurements
• Water content determination using Karl Fischer titration
• Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)
• Density measurements
• Laser granulometry
