The early twentieth century led to the discovery of penicillin‚ which revolutionized the use of curative agents to combat many bacterial contagions found around the globe. This was particularly useful in 1943 when the War Production Board outlined a plan to mass-produce a powdered formula of the drug to aid in the WWII American war effort.1 Penicillin’s use on Allied forces in the field reduced the number of amputations and deaths by an estimated 12-15%.2 Despite penicillin’s continued use today

Lab 1: Alkene Addition: Bromination of (E)-stilbene I. Introduction: 1. The purpose of the experiment was to perform an electrophilic addition reaction by using pyridinium tribromide to brominate (E)-stilbene and to identify whether it formed the meso- or racemic product through melting point analysis. 2. This is the mechanism for the bromination of (E)-stilbene. However‚ this is the mechanism for Br2 and in class we us Pyridinium Tribromide instead due to the difficulties associated

CHEM 2123 and 2125 – Organic Chemistry Lab I and II GUIDELINES FOR WRITING LAB REPORTS INTRODUCTION Writing reports in organic chemistry lab may differ from the way it’s done in general chemistry. One goal of this course is to introduce you to the record keeping methods used in research labs. Such methods are designed to organize experimental data in a format similar to that required for publication in major scientific journals. Here are some important considerations that apply in research settings

the nitrogen atom. The nitronium ion‚ acting as the electrophile in the nitration reaction‚ will attack the benzene ring and produces the nitrobenzene ring. Resonance-stabilized arenium ion is created when the nucleophilic carbon pi bond on the acetanilide reacts with the nitronium ion. The aromaticity of the compound is lost in this important step. Water‚ acting as the Lewis base‚ removes a proton from the carbon bonded to the nitro group‚ an aromatic benzyl structure is created again: nitroacetanilide;

asses the pharmaceutical preparation of Panacetin‚ by using it ’s solubility along with other organic molecules. We know that Panacetin is made up of sucrose‚ aspirin and some other unknown substance. We know the substance has to be Phenacetin or Acetanilide. To help solidify our reasoning‚ we need a % recovery of 8-12% sucrose‚ 35-45% aspirin and 45-55% unknown. Sucrose for example is insoluble in dichloromethane‚ while aspirin is soluble in CH2Cl2‚ but not in H2O. The organic compound sodium hydroxide
