Title: Experiment 28: Nitration of Methyl Benzoate Objective: The students will learn to nitrate methyl benzoate through electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction. They will learn the importance of regiochemistry in chemical reactions. They might experience disubstitution through a high temperature. Reactions: Observation: The crystals started to form when added 2 g of crushed ice. The addition of hot methanol dissociated the crystals. The crystals reappeared when cooled down in

began by weighing 4.0ml of methyl salicylate into a flask—a stir bar was added. While stirring‚ 40ml of 6M sodium hydroxide was added and the solution was heated and boiled for about 15 minutes. After the 15 minutes‚ a bit of water was used to wash down the sides of the flask and the solution was cooled. It was boiled for another 15 minutes‚ after this the solution was cooled for 5 minutes in an ice water bath. While the flaks was in the ice bath‚ 50ml of 6M hydrochloric acid was added in 5ml increments

acetanilide from a mixture by recrystallization. Compare the melting points of crude and recrystallized acetanilide. Introduction : The most common method of purifying solid organic compounds is by recrystallization. In this technique‚ an impure solid compound is dissolved in a solvent and then allowed to slowly crystallize out as the solution cools. As the compound crystallizes from the solution‚ the molecules of the other compounds dissolved in solution are excluded from the growing

The objective of this experiment was to learn the process of recrystallization and how this process removes the impurities from a pure solid compound. The methods used to achieve this objective were also hot vacuum filtration in order to remove suspended solid impurities‚ and isolating the pure acetanilide. In the next lab‚ percent recovered was obtained through weighing the acetanilide sample as well as comparing its melting point range. In this experiment‚ the sample‚ acetanilide was weighted
