Experiment #5: Esterification of Methyl Benzoate from Benzoic Acid October 28‚ 2010 Abstract: This experiment was conducted to synthesize methyl benzoate from benzoic acid and methanol by using the Fischer esterification method. Methanol (12.5ml) and Benzoic acid (4.9 grams) are heated together in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid (1.5ml) until equilibrium is achieved. A reflux apparatus is set up for 1 hour to carry out the reaction at the boiling point of the solvent (Methanol

they are so volatile‚ and they will react with nearly anything. The covalent bonded compounds (example: R2Pb) are toxic. The compounds that are polar covalent bonded are Grignard reagents and are useful in making carbon-carbon bonds and reducing carbonyls. Grignard reagents are any of the numerous organic derivatives of magnesium (Mg)‚ commonly represented by the general formula RMgX (in which R is a hydrocarbon radical: CH3‚ C2H5‚ C6H5‚ etc.; and X is a halogen atom‚ usually chlorine‚ bromine‚

aldehydes‚ and ketones. Aldehydes and Ketones are connected from the premise that they both possess a carbonyl group C=O. The main difference however is that the carbonyl carbon of ketones is bound by two carbon atoms. On the other hand‚ the carboxyl carbon of aldehydes is bound by one hydrogen atom. Hence‚ aldehydes place the carbonyl group at the terminal carbon end‚ while the ketone carbonyl group is always internal. Typically‚ simple aldehydes have an irritating and unpleasant odor.

Grignard reagent phenyl magesium brominde. The organometallic grignard reagent was synthesized by use of a reflux apparatus recrystallization techniques. Once synthesized it was used in a Grignard reaction that involved nucleophilic addition to a carbonyl in order to make triphenylmethanol. The final product was solidified and recrystallized and spectral data was obtained to confirm its presence. Introduction: Carbon-carbon bonds are the basis of organic chemistry. Attaching carbons and

Structural Effects on Stability and Reactivity. Organic Chemstry Laboratory Structural Effects on Stability and Reactivity Introduction The concepts of stability and reactivity are fundamental to understanding chemistry. In this chapter we consider first the thermodynamic definition of chemical stability. We then consider chemical kinetics (Section 3.2) and how it can provide information about reactivity. We also explore how structure influences stability and reactivity. We want to learn how

IR Spectrum There are three very sharp peaks at 1400-1600 cm-1‚ these peaks are due to the presence of carbonyl (C=O) bond. In organic molecules‚ generally‚ carbonyl bond shows peak at ~ 1600-1750 cm-1 but in our spectrum it absorbs low energy as C=O has weaken because of the presence of back-bonding in this complex. Metal ion has donated/shared its electrons to the empty pi star orbitals of C atom. This has significant effect on C=O strength hence low energy absorption. Preparation of- Manganese(III)
