General Safety Considerations 1. 1-Butanol and 1-bromobutane are toxic and irritating. Avoid all contact by constantly wearing goggles, gloves and working in the hood. Neither of these compounds can be poured down the drain. Like all products, 1-bromobutane should be turned in to your TA in a labeled vial. Any excess butanol should be discarded in non-halogenated waste. 2. H2SO4 is extremely corrosive. In very diluted form it can be poured down the drain, all other precautions described for butanol apply.
3. NaOH solution is corrosive. Handle it like H2SO4. 4. Methylene chloride is toxic and can be extremely irritating to your skin, especially when you are wearing gloves and it goes through them. It is not a bad idea to wear several pairs of gloves while working with it in addition to wearing goggles and working in the hood. 5. If you come in contact with any of the above mentioned chemicals, flush the exposed area for at least fifteen minutes with cold water. In the event of a major spill, consult your instructor.

Please note that this lab will have a form write-up. You will be using a form to help you adjust to the changes in format involved in a preparative write-up. This means that your lab report will consist of this cover and the completed form that is found later in this section of the lab book.
You might also want to note that this is a two week experiment. While it is to your advantage to get as much of it done as possible during the first week, the prelab pages of the form will not be collected
