Discussion Using the Thin Layer Chromatography experiment‚ caffeine was found to be the most polar due to the fact that it stayed closer to the stationary phase. Caffeine contains four amine groups that are extremely polar as a result of the hydrogen bond and amide functional group. Acetaminophen was found to be the second most polar analgesic drug tested. Acetaminophen contains a polar alcohol group on one side and amide group on the other but also includes non-polar functional groups that consisted

Experiment #1: Thin-Layer Chromatographic Analysis of Drug Components | Performed on: Wednesday‚ May 8th‚ 2013 | | | 5/15/2013 | | Introduction: The goal of this experiment was to identify an unknown analgesic drug through the use of thin-layer chromatography. The drugs used were‚ Unknown #1‚ caffeine‚ aspirin‚ and acetaminophen. Thin-Layer Chromatography is a technique for identifying substances using a mobile phase (developing solvent) that draws up through a

Thin-Layer Chromatography of Analgesics Abstract: In this experiment thin-layer chromatography (TLC) was used to determine the composition of an unknown mixture of analgesics given five references of AC‚ ASP‚ CAF‚ IBU‚ SAL‚ an unknown consisting of a mixture of three of the references‚ and two unknowns (6‚23) containing a single reference compound. The composition of the unknown mixture and two single unknowns were determined by spotting the reference compounds and the unknown compounds on two

Title: Thin-Layer Chromatography Objectives: Part1: 1. To learn the technique of TLC and the visualization of colourless components. 2. To identify an unknown drug by a TLC comparison with standard compounds. Part 2: To learn the separation technique by using Thin Layer Chromatography plate in separating a mixture of compounds into individual pure compound by using Spinach Leaf. Introduction: (i) General Concepts Chromatography is a common and powerful method used to separate and analyze complex

Thin Layer Chromatography of the Unknown Analgesic Jessica Bajao*‚ Phoebe Abalos‚ Kevin Antiga‚ Carmelus Aseneta 3-Biology 2 College of Science‚ University of Santo Tomas‚ Manila‚ Philippines Abstract The group used five different analgesics in this experiment: aspirin‚ acetaminophen‚ ibuprofen‚ caffeine‚ and mefenamic acid. Six analgesics were spotted on the TLC plate including the unknown. After the development of the TLC plate‚ it was placed under ultraviolet light for the spots resulted

Thin Layer Chromatography Introduction Thin Layer Chromatography or TLC is a technique used as a separation and identification technique. There are many forms of chromatography‚ but one thing that remains constant throughout all of the types of chromatography is that there is a stationary phase and a mobile phase. In the case of TLC the stationary phase is the silica gel on the TLC tray. Procedure Chromatograph method is a method of separating mixtures of two or more compounds. Two phases

Expt. 8.1 Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) Analysis of Analgesics Krista Jinks CH 211L Section F 10/27/14 I. Abstract: The objective of this experiment was to analyze analgesic tablets by TLC to determine what analgesics they contain. The analgesics that could be in the tablets included ibuprofen‚ acetaminophen‚ aspirin‚ and caffeine. Through the use of TLC‚ unknown substance #62 was found to be Bayer Aspirin because it only contained aspirin. II. Introduction: 1. Briefly describe

Usually an aqueous and organic phase are used. During extraction the desired compound moves one phase and leaves the unwanted substance behind. Extraction normally has to be done a few times to leave all of the impurities
