Brief (one page) handout for beginning organic chemistry laboratory students on locating optical rotation data for common organic compounds.

This handout summarizes ways students in a sophomore level organic chemistry class can search data from the lab (e.g, heteratom information, physical properties, spectral data) in Integrated Spectral Database of Organic Compounds (SDBS), Properties of Organic Chemistry (POC), Dictionary of Organic Chemistry (DOC), Reaxys, and SciFinder.

Summary showing how to convert lab data into search strategies to identify unknown organic compounds.
