2. Concerns with Assignment Two
1B. This is a toughie. Many people could not find the
online version of the article from Chemical
Communications.
1C. Nobody got extra credit for finding the source that
shows melting point of Cryptopine is 220-221 in another
source.
4B. Literature Links for Cryptopine – Answer should be
six. Demo. http://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/
Some people got the extra credit for seeing that the
Journal of the Air Pollution Control Association is in PASCAL,
not really in Penrose.
