The reaction conditions will be recorded and collated using Excel spreadsheets and named according to each generation of reaction.
The various experimental procedures and associated compound characterisation will be written up using the Royal Society of Chemistry standard formatting in a Word document. The associated NMR spectra will be collated in chronological order in a.pdf document.
These are standard practices for synthetic methodology projects.
