EXPERIMENT 1: REACTIONS OF ENOLATE IONS WITH CARBONYL GROUPS Aims In this experiment we used two techniques for the reactions of enolate ions with carbonyl groups. One technique used was Doebner reaction and the other technique used was Claisen-Schmidt reaction. Therefore the aim of this experiment is to synthesize trans p-methoxycinnamic acid and to synthesize dibenzalacetone via an aldol condensation reaction between acetone and benzaldehyde. The products would be recrystallized using ethanol

The regular longboard would go faster. Let’s say that we were going down hill with the boards. The regular board can reach up to about 80 miles per hour. And the electric board might just break and you won’t be able to use it. People say that they would rather have a electric longboard instead of a regular board. I say that

The eSOC II Board As mentioned in Lecture 3 and the textbook‚ most logic circuits today are built using programmable logic devices (PLDs). These devices allow circuits to be built directly onto single chips‚ without the need for interconnection of separate‚ single purpose ICs. The eSOC II (electronic System-on-a-Chip) board is designed to allow a direct interface between the Quartus II software and the Altera Cyclone II EP2C8 FPGA. The board provides an interface to the chip‚ along with supporting

Board composition The board of directors plays a central role in the corporate governance mechanism. The board is responsible for directing and controlling the business and is accountable to shareholders for its performance. High profile failures such as Enron have underlined the dangers of an ineffective group of non-executive directors and the severe problems that can arise when their independence is compromised through conflict of interest. The cadbury recommendations had substantial impact on

Experiment 2: IDENTIFICATION OF UNKNOWNS BY TLC AND MP IN COMBINATION Introduction: Thin layer chromatography (TLC) is one of the most valuable techniques in organic chemistry. This is a best method of separating and identifying mixtures of two or more compounds. The separation is accomplished by the distribution of the mixture between two phases: one that is stationary and one that is moving or mobile. Chromatography works on the principle that different compounds will have different

In recent years the use of vision boards has become increasingly popular. Primarily due to the success of the personal development movie ’The Secret’. Although they have only become popular during the last few years‚ vision boards have in fact been around from the time that we were able to draw. In this article we explain just a little more about why a vision board is the ideal tool to accelerate your goal getting activities. If you have never seen a vision board before it is very easy to find multiple
