Abstract: To address the evolving demands for chemical talent development in the new era, we designed an optimization experiment for the synthesis process of ferrous fumarate, incorporating the development principles of raw pharmaceutical products. This comprehensive experiment encompassed compound preparation, titration analysis, and instrumental characterization, conducted through a research-oriented approach. The implementation of this experiment effectively enhanced students' comprehensive experimental skills, stimulated their learning motivation, and achieved remarkable outcomes in experimental teaching reform. The optimized synthesis process demonstrated simplicity and efficiency, enabling ferrous fumarate to meet all pharmacopoeia specifications, thereby successfully accomplishing the objective of product quality control.

Key words: Ferrous fumarate, Process optimization, Research experiment, Experimental teaching reform, Quality control
