Part 1: Reaction
First the glassware apparatus for the reaction was set up. 3.861-grams of isoborneol, 2.21-mL of glacial acetic acid, and 4.39-mL of 6% NaOCl solution were mixed in a 125-mL Erlenmeyer flask. Another 35-mL of 6% NaOCl solution was added to a separatory funnel and supported over the flask. The NaOCl in the sep funnel was slowly added into the Erlenmeyer flask with vigorous swirling, approximately 2-mL every 30 seconds until all the NaOCl from the sep funnel had been added. The temperature of the reaction mixture was closely monitored using a thermometer to make sure the temperature did not rise above 50ºC. After the addition completed, a watch glass was placed over the reaction flask and the flask was allowed
