Epoxidation Reactions Lab Report 2 Abstract An oxygen atom is transferred from a peroxy acid to the carbon=carbon double bond thus forming an epoxide. Scheme 1. Oxone Epoxidation. Scheme 2. mCPBA Epoxidation. The percent yield for the Oxone epoxidation reaction was 65% yield and the mCPBA epoxidation reaction was 70% yield. Oxone is the greener alternative because using mCPBA is twice as expensive as Oxone and leaves behind the epoxide plus m-chlorobenzoic acid while Oxone creates non-toxic

Elisa Hofmeister Kokesh Hour 3 AP Chemistry 5-29-12 The Chemistry of Coffee Green Coffee- Before coffee is roasted‚ it is referred to as “green coffee”. The green coffee is primarily made up of caffeine‚ lipids‚ carbohydrates‚ proteins (amino acids)‚ and organic acids (although inorganic acids exist in coffee as well). These groups are quite stable in the green phase‚ and it is the carbohydrates‚ proteins‚ and acids that will undergo significant reactions during roasting to produce coffee

Smoke From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia For other uses‚ see Smoke (disambiguation). Smoke from a bee smoker‚ used inbeekeeping the smoke of burning tungsten in alightbulb Smoke is a collection of airborne solid and liquid particulates and gases[1] emitted when a material undergoes combustion or pyrolysis‚ together with the quantity of air that is entrained or otherwise mixed into the mass. It is commonly an unwanted by-product of fires (including stoves‚ candles‚ oil lamps‚ and fireplaces)

produced by the partial maturation of kerogen or the degradation of crude oil. Crude Oil: Crude oil is a liquid at surface temperatures. It is soluble to normal petroleum solvents. It has four main groups of organic compounds: paraffin‚ naphthalene‚ aromatics‚ and resins. Natural Gas: Is a hydrocarbon gas. The major natural gases are methane‚ ethane‚ propane‚ and butane. Condensates: These are hydrocarbons transitional between gas and crude oil. Five Parameters for Hydrocarbon Accumulation - Source rocks

rose out of the sea. When she did‚ she was found to be covered with rosemary. The name of the plant comes from this story. The Latin term “ros marinus” or “dew of the sea” (Bradley 130). Because it burns so easily when dried‚ and is wonderfully aromatic‚ rosemary was one of the first herbs to be used in incense. It is commonly used as a substitute for other herbs.

C H A P T E R 5 Basic Concepts from Organic Chemistry 5.1 | INTRODUCTION The fundamental information that environmental engineers and scientists need concerning organic chemistry differs considerably from that which the organic chemist requires. This difference is due to the fact that chemists are concerned principally with the synthesis of compounds‚ whereas environmental engineers and scientists are concerned‚ in the main‚ with how the organic compounds in liquid‚ solid‚ and gaseous wastes

single letter F‚ and is classified as a nonpolar amino acid due to the hydrophobic nature of the benzyl side chain (UPAC-IUBMB Joint Commission on Biochemical Nomenclature‚ 1983). The presence of the benzene ring determines that phenylalanine is an aromatic amino acid. Phenylalanine‚ being an essential amino acid‚ is needed by the body for many necessary biological functions‚ but cannot be produced by the body (Ehrlich‚ 2013). Thus‚ all phenylalanine taken in to the body must be ingested. Phenylalanine

Train the ability to solve the practical problems. Principle: Aromatic aldehydes can have aldol reaction with aldehydes or ketones which have α-hydrogen atoms‚ dehydrate to form high yield of α‚β-unsaturated aldehydes or α‚β-unsaturated ketones under catalytic of alkalis. These kinds of reactions are called Claisen-Schmidt condensation reaction. It is an important approach to grow the carbon chain and can be used to synthesize aromatic compounds which have two different function groups on their side

shown to increase the risk of cancer. 4. Grilled Red Meat There is nothing quite like a freshly grilled steak hot of the barbecue‚ but did you know that when meat is cooked at high temperature‚ such as on a grill‚ a byproduct called heterocyclic aromatic amines is produced. These are known carcinogens that could increase your risk of developing several types of cancers. Unfortunately‚ according to the National Cancer Center‚ there are still no official guidelines from healthcare experts concerning
