both isomers. Maleic acid Fumaric acid Cis and trans isomers have different physical properties such as boiling point‚ solubility‚ density and stability. In this experiment some maleic acid is converted to fumaric acid by heating an aqueous solution of maleic acid in the presence of hydrochloric acid. The hydrochloric acid serves as a catalyst of the reaction. The properties of two acids are then compared. Chemicals Maleic acid‚ magnesium ribbon‚ sodium carbonate

Introduction Friedel-Crafts acylation of anisole with acetic anhydride was used in this experiement to synthesize 4-methoxyacetophenone with the use of a reflux apparatus. Friedel-Crafts reactions can be done by alkylation‚ which involves mixing an alkyl or acyl halide with a Lewis acid‚ or acylation‚ which is done with acid chlorides or anhydrides(Lefevre). Acylation was used because it does not have as many disadvantages aklyations reactions have such as polyalkylation‚ second electrophilic attacks

Melting point 1. What two effects do impurities have on the melting point of an organic compound? Soluble impurities affect the melting point of a solid in the following manner. a. The presence of an impurity in the molten compound reduces its vapor pressure thus lowering the melting point of the compound. b. Broaden the melting point range. 2. For what tow purpose are melting points routinely used a. To determine the identity of an organic solid. b. To determine the purity of an organic solid

EXP-10 CHEM 233L SYNTHESIS OF p-BROMOANILINE Introduction: In this experiment‚ p-bromoaniline was synthesized in three steps starting from aniline. Since the amino group of aniline is a strong activator of aromatic ring‚ direct bromination is impractical (equation 1). In order to make a desired product‚ amino group needed to be protected as the acetamide which also maintained ortho and para position but slowed down the rate of reaction (equation 2). Slow reaction rate would increase

UV Spectroscopy: UV spectroscopy is concerned with ranges from 190 to 370 nm. Compound which are colourless absorb radiation in UV range. In both UV as well as visible spectroscopy only the valence electrons absorb the energy there by molecule undergoes transition from ground state to exited state. This absorbance is characteristic and depends on the nature of the electron present. The intensity of the electron depends on the concentration and path length as given by Lambert beer’s law. Lambert
