Green Oxidation of Borneol to Camphor Abstract: This lab converted borneol to camphor using a green oxidation. Sodium hypochlorite was used instead of the less “green” Jones reagent. Borneol was mixed with glacial acetic acid and oxidized with sodium hypochlorite to make crude camphor. The crude camphor was purified by sublimation. The final product was characterized by obtaining a melting point and inferred spectroscopy. The experiment was carried out to see if bleach could oxidize borneol

A Synthesis of Safrole and o-Safrole W.H. Perkin & V.M. Trikojus J. Chem. Soc. 1663 (1927) HTML by Rhodium No direct synthesis of safrole has been recorded‚ the most recent attempt being that of Baker and Robinson (JCS‚ 1925‚ 127‚ 1424)‚ who distilled the product of the action of silver oxide and water upon gamma-piperonylpropyltrimethylammonium iodide‚ but obtained isosafrole‚ the double bond moving into the position of greater stability.

Protein synthesis is one of the most fundamental biological processes. To start off‚ a protein is made in a ribosome. There are many cellular mechanisms involved with protein synthesis. Before the process of protein synthesis can be described‚ a person must know what proteins are made out of. There are four basic levels of protein organization. The first is primary structure‚ followed by secondary structure‚ then tertiary structure‚ and the last level is quaternary structure. Once someone understands
