I. Abstract The experiment: Classification tests on Organic Compounds‚ allows the students to be familiarized with different classification tests used for identifying the different classes of organic compounds; examine unknown compounds using appropriate tests; and identify functional group of an organic compound based on the tests performed. Several organic compounds with different functional groups were tested to identify the functional groups present in the compound. n-heptane‚ pentene

Postulated that acyclovir is metabolized by the alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) enzyme to acyclovir aldehyde‚ which is metabolized by the aldehyde dehydrognase 2 (ALDH2) enzyme to 9-carboxymethoxymethylguanine (CMMG). Hypothesized that acyclovir aldehyde plays a role in acyclovir-induced nephrotoxicity. Human renal proximal tubular (HK-2) cells were used as in vitro model. The results indicates that acyclovir aldehyde is produced in HK-2 cells and that inhibition of its production by 4-methylpyrazole offers

do so because there is an anomeric carbon available in the cyclic form of the molecule which allows it to open into a straight-chain form containing an aldehyde group. The aldehyde in the straight-chain reacts with the copper ions in the reagent to produce the color change. Positive Results. Glucose‚ galactose and honey all contain aldehyde

carboxylic acids in two stages‚ it forms an aldehyde and then to the acid. In this experiment‚ we are used to prepare benzoic acid from benzene. Potassium permanganate is used this operation as an oxidizing reagent‚ it is used to oxidize the benzoic acid as well as acting as a catalyst for the reaction. Potassium permanganate (KMnO4) is a very strong oxidant which is able to react with many functional groups‚ such as secondary alcohols‚ 1‚2-diols‚ aldehydes‚ alkenes‚ oximes‚ sulfides and thiols. It

*substitution (of a carboxylic/acid derivative) = addition + elimination - substitution at the tetrahedral intermediate from the addition of an organometallic to an aldehyde/ketone will not (usually) work as R- (i.e. H- or CH3-) is a bad leaving group - addition of a Grignard reagent to an aldehyde/ketone = stable tetrahedral intermediate (alkoxide) - addition of an alcohol to a carbonyl group in the presence of a base = unstable intermediate (hemiacetal/hydrate) - nucleophiles with good

an alcohol can produce aldehydes‚ ketones‚ or carboxylic acids. One of the methods of oxidation is an aldol reaction through carbon-carbon bonds. The oxidation oxidizes primary alcohols to aldehydes and secondary alcohols oxidizes ketones. Tertiary alcohols are converted to the common oxidizing agents. Scheme 5.1: Aldehydes can be oxidized easily to carboxylic acids in aqueous medias and could cause over-oxidization because there is an extra hydrogen adjacent to the aldehyde. Though over-oxidization

chemical actions. The carbohydrate‚ glucose‚ is a key component in generating adenosine triphosphate‚ also known as ATP. In order to analyze unknown glucose levels‚ a DNS assay was performed. By using 2-hydroxy-3‚5-dinitrobenzoic acid to oxidize the aldehyde group on the carbohydrate‚ the reducing end of glucose increases in absorbance of 540 nm. Using a UV spectrophotometer‚ the concentration was calculated by using a regression line of the standard curve. The experimental data concluded a 1068.912

Carboxylic acids are compounds which contain a carboxyl group‚ -COOH group‚ where the -COOH group is attached either to a hydrogen atom or to an alkyl group. One of the example of carboxylic acid is benzoic acid( benzene carboxylic acid) which has a benzene connected to the carboxyl carboxyl group‚ -COOH group. It has a formula of C6H5COOH. The carbon atom of a carboxyl group has a high oxidation state. Therefore‚ that many of the chemical reactions used for their preparation are oxidations. In

found when 6 drops of 2‚4-dinitrophenylhydrazine were added to both 5 drops of benzaldehyde and 5 drops of acetophenone. Based on these data‚ it is possible to find alcohol by oxidation and aldehyde by observing precipitation Introduction This experiments is to find if one substance has alcohols‚ aldehydes or ketones. If one reactant is alcohol‚ the color of the reactant will be turned into green when 6 drops of potassium dichromate and 1 drop of concentrated sulfuric acid were added. Also
