experiment was to synthesize the tertiary alcohol triphenylmethanol from a Grignard reagent‚ phenyl magnesium bromide. The Grignard reagent was synthesized from bromobenzene and magnesium and then reacted with benzophenone to produce triphenylmethanol. It was important that water be excluded from the reaction‚ in order to prevent the formation of benzene. The reaction of phenyl magnesium bromide and benzophenone was quenched with sulfuric acid‚ and an extraction was performed in order to separate the

conjugation which will stabilise the molecule. The mechanism for this step is unlikely to go via a simple elimination as for an elimination the eliminated products must be trans to each other for facile leaving. As the bromine is equatorial in both the chair and the boat conformation the bromine is trans with neither of the hydrogens which shows this type of elimination is unlikely to occur. The other possibility is that the acidic hydrogen that is removed in the first step is not H4‚ but H2. This

agent to ensure that pure cyclohexene was obtained‚ calcium chloride works by binding itself to the water molecule thus removing it in the process. After the dehydrating process was completed‚ a few tests using Potassium Permanganate solution and Bromine which were purple and Reddish-Orange respectively was conducted. The tests showed a positive result which indicated that the product was indeed pure cyclohexene. As a result of this‚ it was concluded that the activity was indeed a success as cyclohexene

Introduction: With the execution of this experiment‚ we began to go deeper into the Cell and Molecular Biology course. The main focus of the experiment would be how the Restriction Endonucleases cleave the strands of DNA. For this experiment‚ pBR322 was the specimen to use. Restriction Endonucleases work by cleaving the sugar phosphate backbone of specific DNA sites. Restriction enzymes that have been isolated from bacteria have a defensive role. This idea is illustrated when an attacking foreign

| Reactions of Grignard Reagents with Carbonyls | | | Tuesday 1:30 | 2/28/2012 | | Introduction This experiment explores the reactivity pattern for the addition of Grignard reagents to three different carbonyl groups: a ketone‚ an ester‚ and a carbonate. Grignard reagents are organometallic compounds that have a carbon-metal bond‚ such as carbon-magnesium. Grignard reagents are formed from the reaction of an alkyl‚ cycloalkyl‚ or aryl halide and magnesium metal in dry ether

Phenylmagnesium bromide was then transformed into a tertiary alcohol called triphenylmethanol‚ through addition of another compound called benzophenone‚ as well as additional ether. The end product of triphenylmethanol was analyzed via NMR and IR. Figure 1: Preparation of the Grignard agent by combining bromobenzene with magnesium and ether to produce phenylmagnesium bromide.
