nutmeg with the organic substance‚ diethyl ether‚ to evidently produce trimyristin with a small portion of myristicin (solid-liquid extraction). Also‚ it is good to know that due to impurity the best way purify the product of trimyristin is by recrystallization through hot acetone. NATURE OF REACTION: Power state Trimyristin Myristic acid (tetradecanoic acid) NATURE/MECHANISM OF REACTION: The temperature range should be between 56-57 °C. The organic

October 17 & October 24‚ 2012 How is Aspirin Made? This lab is about synthesizing aspirin using a hotplate to heat the reaction. It involved vacuum filtration‚ recrystallization‚ and comparing the properties of aspirin with salicylic aspirin. The first thing we did in this lab was make a hot-water bath by putting a beaker with water on a hot plate. After measuring out 2.1 grams of salicylic acid and 3 ml of acetic anhydride‚ we mixed the two together‚ along with 3 drops of sulfuric acid. We

product was 69.03%. Following recrystallization of the product using xylene and vacuum filtration‚ a percent yield of 37.42% for the recrystallized product was collected. This was low due to the fact that some of the crude product was not recrystallized and was instead used to take a melting point of the crude product. It was also low due to several of the crystals being stuck inside the flask and not going into the funnel. The percent recovery from recrystallization was 54.21%. The melting point

CHEM 2123 and 2125 – Organic Chemistry Lab I and II GUIDELINES FOR WRITING LAB REPORTS INTRODUCTION Writing reports in organic chemistry lab may differ from the way it’s done in general chemistry. One goal of this course is to introduce you to the record keeping methods used in research labs. Such methods are designed to organize experimental data in a format similar to that required for publication in major scientific journals. Here are some important considerations that apply in research settings

Recrystallization of Methyl 3-nitrobenzoate Santiago Horta‚ Daniella I School of Chemistry and Biochemistry‚ Georgia Institute of Technology Atlanta‚ GA 30332 Submitted: 18 February 2015 In this experiment‚ the product of a nitration will be purified by recrystallization using a selected solvent. Methyl benzoate is treated with nitric acid and sulfuric acid to obtain methyl 3-benzoate‚ which will be mixed with a solvent that will dissolve the product at its boiling temperature but not at

The precipitate was allowed to dry for recrystallization. The product was removed from the filter paper and weighed. The weight of the product was 1.445g. NMR was conducted by mixing the dry product (0.35mg) with duderated chloroform (0.50ml) and mixing until the precipitate dissolved. The sample was then placed into the NMR. The NMR spectrum confirmed the product was benzocaine. The remainder of the sample was placed into a 250ml beaker for recrystallization. Methanol and deionized water were added

Synthesis of Dulcin Objective: The main objective of this lab is to gain experience at a typical synthesis and semi-microscale recrystallization. Discussion Questions: 1) How fast should the temperature be raised when determining a melting point? When can the temperature be raised more quickly? 2) If there is an Impurity present in a sample‚ what is the effect on the melting point? 3) Explain why a) salt‚ spread on roads in the winter‚ helps prevent icing in‚ for instance‚ southern

HEAT TREATMENT OF COPPER AND COPPER ALLOYS COPPER AND COPPER ALLOYS: Copper and its alloys are widely used in many products that are used in our everyday life. They have excellent properties such as electrical and thermal conductivity good strength. They have high corrosion resistance and fatigue resistance. Copper is a non-magnetic material. Pure Copper is soft and used widely in wires and cables and is extensively used for passage of electricity. Copper is used in the building construction.

Analysis The crude product (aspirin) was purified in the last lab‚ using recrystallization‚ in which we dissolved the crude product with hot ethanol. We then added 25 mL of water until the product reformed (the solution became cloudy white) and redissolved the solid with hot ethanol. The solution was allowed to cool for a week‚ and crystals of purified solid were formed. In order to analyze this purified product‚ we determined the melting point by placing a small sample of the aspirin in a

Repeat this for about 2 times. 3.> In the recrystallization procedure‚ why were the crystals dissolved in only the minimum amount of
