Synthesis of Cyclohexanol Author: Ahmed Ayyash 06/06/13 Introduction: In this experiment‚ cyclohexanol was prepared from an initial cyclohexene. However‚ this occurred over a number of steps‚ these are out lined below. 1. Cyclohexene + aqueous acid cyclohexyl cation 2. cyclohexyl cation + hydrogen sulphate + water protonated cyclohexanol + cyclohexyl hydrogen sulphate 3. cyclohexyl hydrogen sulphate protonated cyclohexanol + HSO4 4. protonated cyclohexanol + HSO4

that would be used later on in quantitative analysis of percent yield of cyclohexene. Lastly‚ a bromine test was carried out to quantitatively test the presence of cyclohexene product in the prepared sample. A total of 2-3 drops of 3% bromine in dichloromethane was added to a new test tube as well one drop of the prepared cyclohexene. Upon observing a color change from brown to clear‚ one can confirm the presence of cyclohexene in the obtained

The first part of this experiment is preparation of cyclohexene. Simple distillation set-up is assembled. (See Figure 1). Exactly 6.0mL of cyclohexanol is weighed in a quick-fit one-necked pear shaped flask. 1.50mL of 85% H3PO4 is measured using the

Formation of an Alkene by Alcohol Dehydration Lab Report Balanced Chemical Equation for the Main Reaction Mechanism The acid-catalyzed dehydration of secondary and tertiary alcohols involves non-isolable carbocation intermediaries. In the first step of the of the reaction mechanism below‚ a phosphoric acid catalyst adds a proton to the oxygen atom of the alcohol to form an oxonium ion. The OH is converted to a better leaving group as the positive charge on the oxygen weakens the carbon-oxygen

Arranged a fractional distillation apparatus used a 100mL round-bottomed flask for the solution and used a 50mL round- bottomed flask cooled in ice an ice bath as the receiver of the reaction. The 65% sulfuric solution was prepared in a clean 125mL Erlenmeyer flask it contained 20.0 mL of deionized water and 20mL of concentrated sulfuric acid was added carefully with some swirling in between. The diluted acid was cooled with an ice water bath to 20-25ºC. to the cooled sulfuric acid cyclohexanol was

Muhammed Sabah Comparing Reactivity Of Alkanes and Alkenes Aim: To compare the reactivity of an alkane and an alkene Hypothesis: The cyclohexene would react to the bromine water and turn colourless‚ whilst the cyclohexane won’t react. Risk Assessment: What’s the problem? | How do you fix? | How does it work? | Bromine water is corrosive to the skin | Wear gloves | Stops the Bromine water from reaching skin | Cyclohexane/ene is highly flammable | Keep away from naked flames. | No naked

Properties and Reactions of Hydrocarbons Abstract Introduction Hydrocarbons are organic materials that contain only carbon and hydrogen atoms‚ these molecules can be saturated or unsaturated and acyclic‚ cyclic‚ or aromatic. In this experiment we used a variety of methods to examine the physical and chemical properties of hydrocarbons. The first experiment we tested a variety of solvents to see if they dissolved our alkane (Decalin). One would expect that non-polar solvents will dissolve
