Title: Experiment 28: Nitration of Methyl Benzoate Objective: The students will learn to nitrate methyl benzoate through electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction. They will learn the importance of regiochemistry in chemical reactions. They might experience disubstitution through a high temperature. Reactions: Observation: The crystals started to form when added 2 g of crushed ice. The addition of hot methanol dissociated the crystals. The crystals reappeared when cooled down in

Preparation of methyl m-nitrobenzoate by nitration using methyl benzoate‚ nitric acid‚ and sulfuric acid Aileen Quintana TA: Sijie Tues/Thurs 11:50 42067 Introduction: The purpose of this lab was to explore the concepts of electrophilic aromatic substitution‚ specifically nitration by synthesizing methyl m-nitrobenzoate using methyl benzoate‚ nitric acid and sulfuric acid. This nitration is a type of electrophilic aromatic substitution. A

is depended on a particular temperature‚ and the concentrations of reactants and products have to follow a rule demonstrated by the equilibrium constant Kc. The equilibrium concentrations that will be studied is the reaction between iron (III) ion and thiocyanate ion: The mixture of Fe3+ and SCN- react to form a compound that produces a dark brown/red color. Since this is the case‚ it means the complex absorbs the most light at a wavelength of around 450-480nm. Using the balanced equation‚ it can

IMPROVISATION ET CAPRICE September 13‚ 2011 By Eugène Bozza Saxophone Studio Presentation Presented by Robby Avila “The good man is the only excellent musician‚ because he gives forth a perfect harmony not with a lyre or other instrument but with the whole of his life.” - Plato Eugène Bozza (4 April 1905 – 28 September 1991) Eugène Bozza was a 20th century French musician and talented composer who wrote many important works for not only the saxophone‚ but for nearly every wind instrument

We performed two procedures in which we reduced methyl acetoacetate. For the first procedure we produced a racemic mixture of Methyl (S)-3-Hydroxyacetate and Methyl (R)-3-Hydroxyacetate. For the second we produced only one of the enantiomer products depending on which enantiomer of Tartaric Acid was used. A reduction is a reaction which generally means adding more carbon-hydrogen bonds to a compound. In a reduction reaction the oxidation number of a carbon atom decreases. The opposite is an oxidation

Recrystallization of Methyl 3-nitrobenzoate Santiago Horta‚ Daniella I School of Chemistry and Biochemistry‚ Georgia Institute of Technology Atlanta‚ GA 30332 Submitted: 18 February 2015 In this experiment‚ the product of a nitration will be purified by recrystallization using a selected solvent. Methyl benzoate is treated with nitric acid and sulfuric acid to obtain methyl 3-benzoate‚ which will be mixed with a solvent that will dissolve the product at its boiling temperature but not at

The spring constant Manuel Cereijido Fernández – UO237242 PL-4 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------1. Objectives The main objective of this experiment was to determine the spring constant using the dynamic method. 2. Theoretical fundamentals On the one hand‚ when a spring oscillates‚ the movement which describes can be classify as a simple harmonic motion. Therefore‚ its position‚ velocity and acceleration equations respect the time will

– The Constant Gardener In the article “The Constant Gardener: What the Movie Missed” by Sonia Shah‚ she talks about the issues and concerns of new drugs being tested on people in developing countries such as Latin America‚ Eastern Europe‚ Asia and Africa. In Shah’s essay she brings up two convincing arguments against these experiments. One argument Shah speaks on is that in the movie The Constant Gardener the seriousness of the possible danger in these experiments is not well depicted. She argues
