Experiment C. Aim: To protect one of two carbonyl groups (C1) in order to allow the other to react twice with a Grignard followed by removal of the protecting group by acid hydrolysis to give final product (C2). Method: Ethyl acetoacetate (30.03g)‚ ethylene glycol (15.01g) and toluene-p-sulphonic acid (0.13g) were added to a 250 cm3 round bottomed flask‚ containing a stirrer bar and toluene (100 cm3)‚ fitted with a condenser and dean-stark head. Solution was heated strongly under reflux using

alcohol‚ is a volatile‚ clear liquid with a strong alcoholic odor; miscible with water. It is flammable strongly with a luminous flame. Formula: C4H9OH Boiling point: 118 ºC Melting point: -89 ºC Tert-Butyl Alcohol Tert-Butyl Alcohol or “2-methyl-2-propanol” is the simplest tertiary alcohol. It is one of the four isomers of butanol. Tert-Butanol is a clear liquid (or a colorless solid‚ depending on the ambient temperature) with a camphor-like odor. It is very soluble in water and miscible

naturally occurring chemical that has medical applications such as its use as a natural dental anesthetic. It can be extracted from cloves by using the method of steam distillation. The extracted compound will then be separated from the water using methyl chloride‚ which will then be evaporated using a rotary evaporator leaving only the essential oil‚ Eugenol. IR spectroscopy will be used to determine the structure of the extracted compound. Results and Discussion Four samples of Eugenol were combined

acetylsalicylic acid commonly known as aspirin and methyl salicylate‚ commonly known as oil of wintergreen‚ was synthesized from salicylic acid. This study will show that it is possible to show two very different organic compounds from the same common starting material. For the synthesis of aspirin‚ salicylic acid was mixed with one drop of 85% H2SO4 and 0.3mL of acetic anhydride. The collected aspirin was obtained by means of vacuum filtration. For the synthesis of methyl salicylate‚ 0.25g of salicylic acid was

as 14C in DNA which decays into nitrogen. [edit]DNA reactive chemicals A DNA adduct (at center) of benzo[a]pyrene‚ the major mutagen in tobacco smoke. A large number of chemicals may interact directly with DNA. However‚ many such as PAHs‚ aromatic amines‚ benzene are not necessarily mutagenic by themselves‚ but through metabolic processes in cells they produce mutagenic compounds. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) - These may be superoxide‚ hydroxyl radicals and hydrogen peroxide‚ and large number

In this experiment‚ acetanilide‚ the crude product of acetylation of aniline and acetic anhydride‚ was used as the pure organic compound. Crude acetanilide underwent crystallization process using the preferred recrystallizing solvent‚ water. The crystallization process was when crude acetanilide was placed in hot water bath and was cooled after in an ice bath which would then yield to the formation of crystals of pure acetanilide. The percentage yield form the crude acetanilide was 94.59%. The percentage

following are chemical tests that we will use in this class. Some cover two related functional groups (such as the bromine test for alkenes and alkynes)‚ while other only a specific subcategory of that functional group (such as the iodoform test for methyl ketones). In some cases there can be false positives (compounds which do not have the functional group still give a result test) or false negatives (compounds which have the functional group give a negative result). If your results do not match

RECRYSTALLIZATION OF ACETANILIDE ABSTRACT Recrystallization is the primary method for purifying solid organic compounds through the differences in solubility at different temperatures. In this experiment‚ a suitable solvent was first determined. Acetanilide was produced by acetylation of aniline with acetic anhydride. The crude acetanilide was dissolved in a solvent in a heating water bath. The hot solution was filtered and the filtrate‚ cooled slowly in an ice bath as crystals started forming
