would die in seconds. Glucose‚ the most important carbohydrate‚ not only has a carbonyl group but is an aldehyde. Another common carbohydrate is fructose‚ fruit sugar‚ this compound is a ketone. These compounds are more reactive than your typical alkane‚ the question you may ask is why? The answer lies in the location of the electrons in the carbonyl group. First‚ look at the hybridization of a carbonyl carbon. A carbon connected to three other molecules must be doubly bonded to one of those molecules

Experiment 23: Synthesis of an Alkene April 5‚ 2013 Purpose: Results and Discussion The weight of our n-Butyl Bromide sample (actual yield) was 0.09g. The percent yield was found to be 4.38%. Only 0.09g of the theoretical 2.055g yield was obtained. The boiling point was 104° C‚ which is higher than the literature value of 101° C. This is due to the sample being somewhat impure‚ as impurities tend to increase boiling point. When IR spectroscopy was performed‚ there were no OH stretches

Experiment #1 – Aromatic Nitration The purpose of this lab is to convert toluene to nitrotoluene through the process of aromatic nitration. This is done by electrophilic aromatic substitution. The aromatic organic compound‚ toluene‚ is reacted under mild conditions with an electrophile‚ the nitronium ion‚ resulting in a product of nitrotoluene. Failure to use mild conditions may result in polynitration. Different reaction conditions were studied to understand the effect of nitrating agent

Experiment #3 Mark A. Bruder 07. T.A. Michael Hall Alkanes: Chlorination Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to determine the reactivity of hydrogen atoms on a carbon chain using free radical chlorination. In this experiment 1-chlorobutane will be chlorinated with the combination of sulfuryl chloride and ABCN as an initiator to produce the chlorine radicals. The combination of 1-chlorobutane and sulfur chloride will produce four dichlorobutane

Common functional groups found in organic molecules are listed below: * Alkene * Primary alcohol * Tertiary alcohol * Aldehyde * Ketone * Carboxylic acid * Ester * Halogen alkane * Phenol Alkene In organic chemistry‚ an alkene is an unsaturated chemical compound. This means it contains a carbon – carbon bond. All alkenes are hydrocarbons‚ (a molecule made of carbon and hydrogen atoms)‚ and can only form one double bond which must

Experiment 1 :Alkanes&Alkenes:Combustion and action of sulphuric acid. Introduction In the study of organic chemistry‚ the organic compounds which are made up of carbon and hydrogen are called hydrocarbons. They can be gases as‚ propane‚ they can be liquids‚ for example‚ benzene‚ or they can be low-melting solids and waxes‚ for example‚ polystyrene. There are four classifications of hydrocarbons; saturated hydrocarbons or alkanes‚ unsaturated hydrocarbons or alkenes and alkynes‚ cycloalkanes‚ and

Straight Chain Alkanes The general formula for an alkane is CnH2n+2 wheren is the number of carbon atoms in the molecule. There are two ways of writing a condensed structural formula. For example‚ butane may be written as CH3CH2CH2CH3 or CH3(CH2)2CH3. Rules for Naming Alkanes * The parent name of the molecule is determined by the number of carbons in the longest chain. * In the case where two chains have the same number of carbons‚ the parent is the chain with the most substituents.
