describe the type and position of functional groups in the compound. The steps to naming an organic compound are: 1. Identification of the parent hydrocarbon chain. This chain must obey the following rules‚ in order of precedence: 1. It should have the maximum number of substituents of the suffix functional group. By suffix‚ it is meant that the parent functional group should have a suffix‚ unlike halogen substituents. If more than one functional group is present‚ the one with highest

It was reported that when there was competition between a double bond and an O–H functional group of an unsaturated alcohol for a metal carbene‚ the O–H insertion product is favoured. The percentage yield as a ratio of ether: cyclopropanol was 81:19 when the ligand on the rhodium catalyst was a methyl group[7]. It was found that changing

Experiment #9 – Identification of Aldehydes and Ketones Introduction Aldehydes and ketones share the carbonyl functional group which features carbon doubly bonded to oxygen. In the case of ketones there are two carbon atoms bonded to the carbonyl carbon and no hydrogens. In the case of aldehydes there is at least one hydrogen bonded to the carbonyl carbon; the other attachment may be to a carbon or a hydrogen. In all cases the carbon(s) that are attached to the carbonyl group may be aliphatic (not

Department College of Science‚ De La Salle University-Dasmarinas ABSTRACT Five substances which are Hexane‚ Eugenol‚ Unknown hydrocarbon 1‚ Unknown hydrocarbon 2‚ and Acetylene gas was used for the selective reactivity of hydrocarbons to functional group tests; Bayer’s test‚ Bromine test light‚ Bromine test dark‚ and Tollen’s test. In Bayer’s test‚ only Acetylene‚ Eugenol and Unknown hydrocarbon 2 reacted positively and the rest retain the purplish color of KMnO4. On the other hand‚ the five

Synthesis of Phenols You can prepare phenols in large quantities by the pyrolysis of the sodium salt of benzene sulfonic acid‚ by the Dow process‚ and by the air oxidation of cumene. Each of these processes is described below. You can also prepare small amounts of phenol by the peroxide oxidation of phenylboronic acid and the hydrolysis of diazonium salts. Pyrolysis of sodium benzene sulfonate In this process‚ benzene sulfonic acid is reacted with aqueous sodium hydroxide. The resulting salt
