Phenol‚ also known as carbolic acid‚ is an aromatic organic compound with the molecular formula C6H5OH. It is a white crystalline solid that is volatile. The molecule consists of a phenyl group (-C6H5) bonded to a hydroxyl group (-OH). It is mildly acidic‚ but requires careful handling due to its propensity to cause chemical burns. Phenol was first extracted from coal tar‚ but today is produced on a large scale (about 7 billion kg/year) from petroleum. It is an important industrial commodity as a

of the modern lahoratory manuals are found short of an experiment on the Michael addition. (3). We describe‚ herein‚ a two-step laboratory experiment involving the Michael addition of aniline as one of the steps. The first step involves the acylation of aniline with maleic anhydride to give maleanilic acid 1. I n the second step maleanilic acid undergoes the Michael addition of aniline and cyclization to yield I-phenyl-3-pl~enylaminopyrrolidine-2‚5dione 2 (Method A). Compound 2 can also he

2.3.2 Counter Ion “Most bacterial cell walls are charged with a negative charge‚ so most antibacterial polymers must be charged with a positive charge to facilitate the adsorption process. The composition of the counter ion‚ or polymer-linked ions‚ is used to balance the charge‚ it also affects the antibacterial activity. The counter ion has positive charge‚ which is a strong ion-pair with the polymer will inhibit the antibacterial activity because it will prevent the polymer from interacting with

History of Sangiovese Sangiovese is one of the most significant and popular red grape varieties in Italy throughout its ancient and fascinating history as it shares its origins with the land of Dionysus. Because it is named after the “blood of Jove”(the Roman Jupiter)‚ many people believe that this kind of grape dates back to the time of the Romans. The first document mentioned coming in the writings of Giovanvettorio Soderini in 1590‚ when he mentioned the good wine producing potential of a grape

Asymmetric Catalysis in Intramolecular Reactions of α-Diazoketones. Abstract: Carbon-hydrogen insertion reactions involve the insertion of a carbene‚ a neutral carbon atom or molecule with two unpaired valence electrons‚ into an unactivated carbon-hydrogen bond. This reaction produces many commercially valuable compounds. The reaction itself involves the use of diazocarbonyl compounds which contain an N2 ligand on a carbon alpha to a carbonyl. The reaction is thermodynamically favourable as it involves

Jackson led his militia against the Creek Nation. After the Battle of Horseshoe Bend‚ Jackson was assigned to serve as a major general of the United States Army. Jackson’s landmark battle as a general is the Battle of New Orleans (Friedel 57). The British hoped to be able to take over the city of New Orleans‚ as well as the Mississippi River. The battle began in the morning of January 8‚ 1815. There were well over 5‚000 British troops against Jackson’s army of about 4‚500. The British lost roughly

was one of the most influential and respected presidents in history. Kennedy was always a kind person. His endless service to America and the world is awe-inspiring. From the first day in office‚ he worked tirelessly to “get America moving again” (Friedel). Other countries are in debt to Kennedy and the things that he provided for him. Civil rights activists also have a great deal of gratitude to Kennedy for his support of the movement John F. Kennedy was an amazing president whose work in foreign

Fluid Catalytic Cracking Fluid catalytic cracking* (FCC) is the most important conversion process used in petroleum refineries. It is widely used to convert the high-boiling hydrocarbonfractions of petroleum crude oils into more valuable [1][2][3] gasoline‚ olefinic gases and other products. . Cracking of petroleum hydrocarbons for conversion of heavy fractions into lighter fractions was originally done by thermal cracking which has been almost completely replaced by catalytic cracking because
