Electrophilic Aromatic Iodination of Vanillin Purpose: The purpose of this laboratory experiment is for an aromatic compound to undergo an electrophilic substitution reaction. To carry this out‚ our method combines sodium iodide and common bleach as the oxidizing agent in aqueous alcohol as the solvent. Balanced Chemical Equations: Physical Properties: Name of Chemical Chemical Structure Molar Mass (g/mol) BP/MP (ºC) Density (g/mL) Mass/Vol. Used Purpose 3-methoxy-4-hydroxybenzaldehye

reaction (SN2‚ E2 etc)? E1 3. Why was acid employed in this reaction? The acid was used to protonate the leaving group (OH) to form water which is a much better leaving group than OH. 4. What role does the aromatic ring play in both intermediate and product formation? The aromatic ring is also benzyllic which helps us steer the reaction in the E1 pathway we are trying to achieve. It also forms a very stable carbocation which is essential for an E1 reaction to occur. The ring helps stabilize

molecular formula would be C8H11N with a HDI of 4. Looking at the IR spectroscopy‚ there is a sharp peak at around 3000 cm-1‚ which indicates C-H bonds. At around 1600 cm-1‚ we see a peak which tells us there are C=C that might corresponds to an aromatic benzene ring‚ which I proved using the NMR. The Nitrogen is also present on the IR spectroscopy leaving its mark with a peak at around 3200 – 3500 cm-1. Lastly‚ I finalized my structure using the NMR spectroscopy. With the information I have collected

as the environment we know is made by an interconnected food web‚ and hence a loss in certain species can result in more direct impacts on our food sources in the long run. 2. Growing health concerns: Due to the high exposure of polycyclic aromatic carbons (PAHs) which is a known carcinogen that may cause cancer. Furthermore‚ there is an increase in the air and noise pollution due to the construction which may disrupt communities living around the area. There have been a couple of issues

concept of electrophilic aromatic substitution‚ which is a type of benzene reaction. This reaction consists usually of benzene and an electrophile. The role of the nucleophile is played by the double bond on the benzene ring. IT will react will the electrophile and this reaction will form a carbon cation intermediate. With additional reactions with a base‚ the electrophile fundamentally replaces the hydrogen of the benzene. Benzene is classified as one of the countless aromatic molecules‚ and this is

color change or a warming effect. Flammability was tested by igniting 3-5 drops of the sample in a small evaporating dish. Baeyer’s test and Bromine test were used for tests for active unsaturation. Aromaticity of the compound was determined through nitration. Oxidation was tested by introducing 8 drops of 2% KMnO4 solution and 3 drops of 10% NaOH solution to 4 drops of the sample organic compound in a test tube and warming the mixture through water bath. All of the test compounds are liquid and colorless

hexagonal ring of carbon called as benzene in their molecule. Aromatic hydrocarbon can contain one or more than one benzene ring. Those compounds which contain more than one benzene ring are known as polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbon like naphthalene‚ anthracene etc. The aromatic compounds are generally taken as derivatives of benzene. Benzene and its derivatives are mainly used in synthetic organic chemistry. The main source of polynuclear aromatic compounds is coal tar. For example‚ naphthalene is the
