Chloroform‚ Acetone and Methanol) for sequential extraction. First of all plant materials were soaked in Hexane for 2-3 days with regular stirring. The mixture was then filtered by using Whatman No. 4 filter paper in to a glass beaker. 300ml of other solvent‚ Chloroform‚ was then added in the residue for 2-3 days. Similarly the mixture was filtered by using whatman No. 4 filter paper. After chloroform‚ Acetone and Methanol were added in residue for sequential extraction. Solvents; Hexane‚ Chloroform

most common of these are ethanol and methanol. These two substances have a few similarities‚ but also significant differences. The similarities are so few that they can be listed concisely; just appearance and smell are similar for these two chemicals. If an individual were presented with samples of each of these chemicals‚ they would have to ignite it or consume it in order to tell the difference. If igniting these chemicals it can be seen that methanol burns hotter due to the white flame compared

Synthesis of 3‚4-dihydro-3-(p-methylphenyl)-1‚2-(2h)-benzoxazine involves the nucleophillic addition of the 1 °amine group upon the carbonyly group of the salicylaldehyde‚ the reduction of imine to amine and the addition of paraformaldehyde to proceed ring closure. The experiment prepared the product through Mannich reaction‚ a multicomponent condensation synthesis between ketone‚ aldehydes‚ enols and amines. Biosynthesis of benzoaxazines occur under reductive and nucleophilic reaction conditions

Purpose: To synthesize 1‚2‚3‚4-tetraphenylnaphthalene through a two-step synthesis. The aldol condensation reaction between benzil and dibenzyl ketone forms 2‚3‚4‚5-tetraphenylcyclopentadienone‚ which then reacts with a benzene formed by anthranilic acid and isoamyl nitrate in order to yield 1‚2‚3‚4-tetraphenylnaphthalene. Reaction Equation A: Synthesis of 2‚3‚4‚5-tetraphenylcyclopentadienone: A solution of 4 capsules potassium hydroxide (0.5g) and 5mL anhydrous ethanol was prepared

I. INTRODUCTION Synthesis Acetylsalicylic acid is an acetyl derivative of salicylic acid which appears as a white and crystalline and a weakly acidic substance with a melting point of 135°C and is also known to be aspirin. It is one of the most widely used drugs that can lower fever and is used as a painkiller. According to (Escobel‚ 2011)‚ Aspirin is synthesized through the reaction of salicylic acid with acetyl anhydride that causes a chemical reaction that turns salicylic acid’s hydroxyl group

This experiment involved a substitution reaction to perform synthesis of 2-phenylethanol to get (2-bromoethyl)benzene. Using NaBr in an acidic solvent of H2SO4 with H2O present‚ this synthesis was possible. Subsequent evaluations using TLC and then analyzed samples by Gas Chromatography were done to evaluate the results. Using SN2 reactions‚ primary alcohol is going to be converted to alkyl halide. Since the reaction can be reversed‚ the strong sulfuric acid was to make sure the product would indeed

formalin. The commercially available formalin has 10 to 12% methanol with a few impurities like aluminum and copper. Almost 21 million tonnes of formaldehyde is produced annually all around the world. Synthesis of Formaldehyde Formaldehyde is produced by catalytic oxidation of methanol. A mixture of molybdenum and iron or silver is used as a catalyst in such a reaction. But a more commonly used process is FORMAX. In this process‚ methanol and oxygen react at temperatures more than 250ºC in presence

through its analysis‚ the enthalpy of combustion for the five alcohols were determined; methanol‚ ethanol‚ propanol‚ butanol‚ and pentanol. As the line of best fit in the graph suggests‚ the enthalpy of combustion increased as the sizes of the molecules increased. This was predicted in the hypothesis and proves it to be correct. As seen on the graph‚ the enthalpy of combustion increases from 140kJ/mol for methanol‚ which has the smallest molecular mass‚ to 530kJ/mol for propanol‚ which has the largest
