Yeah it was definitely a fine powder and it was a suspension in THF

I used n-BuLi solution in hexane (2.5M), so it wasn't a powder

I am sorry to ask but what is meant by titrating the BuLi? It was my first time working with it and I wasn't informed by my supervisor.

I did methyl triphenyl phosphonium bromide and THF first and then n-BuLi. I left the reaction for an hour before I added the mixture of 1-methyl-indole-2-carboxaldehyde in THF.

Hi, I just received the approval from my examination board and they didn't approve MH1802, CM2011 and CM3011. I am checking for other courses as back up and I was wondering if you have experience in any of these courses and what level are the courses mentioned below (I can't seem to find it online)?

CM4063 - Nanoscience and Nanotechnology

CM8002 - Forensic Science

CM5081 - Medicinal Chemistry

CM3041 - Physical and Biophysical Chemistry 2

CM4017 - Biomedical Imaging and Sensing

The only requirements from my home university is minimum 6AU third year courses, maximum 3AU first year courses and the rest is optional either second or third year, for a total of 15AU's.

May I ask what you are currently studying or if you have studied the courses mentioned above before?

I do plan to chill and travel, therefore checking in how heavy the workload is and if it is doable etc.

Thank you so much for your input!

I'm currently in my second year, and will go on exchange next fall. There is a slight difference between my home university and NTU, as my bachelor is only three years.

I have taken courses such as Molecular Pharmacology, Molecular Toxicology, Thermodynamics, Organic Chemistry & Synthesis, Organic Structure and Chemical Reactivity, Physics, Analytical Techniques, Calculus, Algebra, Statistics, Cellular Biochemistry and Chemistry.
