We are indebted to Shelly Bradley and Linda Desrochers for their dedicated assistance and advice, to our colleagues for their support and wise counsel, and to our many excellent organic chemistry students who helped troubleshoot the experiments discussed herein. We also are grateful for an early donation from an anonymous Hendrix alumnus to help us initiate our green organic chemistry and general chemistry laboratory programs.
