Excerpt from The Preparation of Organic Compounds
In the present volume the Author has aimed at giving a general outline of the methods actually employed in preparing organic compounds, and thus providing not only a laboratory manual, but also a book which may be used as a companion volume to the usual theoretical text-books.
In the first chapter will be found a short description of the most common apparatus and reagents used in preparative organic work; and although some of the apparatus described may be regarded as rather crude for academic practice, it must be borne in mind that the average works laboratory, at all events in this country, is not fitted with all the latest refinements, and that one of the chief difficulties experienced by the young chemist on first entering works is to adapt himself to his environment. Although to some minds the idea of carrying out chemical preparations in sauce-pans, jam-pots, &c., may seem rather bizarre, experience will show that such apparatus is quite as satisfactory and considerably less expensive than the more conventional and more brittle beakers and basins.
