Synthesis of Isopentyl Acetate Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to produce isopentyl acetate‚ banana oil. Acetic acid and isoamyl alcohol were used to synthesize isopentyl acetate. The techniques used for the separation and purification of isopentyl acetate were reflux‚ liquid-liquid extraction‚ neutralization and distillation. The identification of isopentyl acetate was based on boiling points and an infrared spectrum. This experiment resulted in a 11.68% yield. The reactants

Preparation of an Acetic Acid Ester Abstract: 14.1 g of octyl acetate were synthesized from the esterification process using 20.0 ml of acetic acid and 17.9 g of n-octanol. The theoretical yield was 23.8 g of octyl acetate. The percent yield was 59.2%. The purification of the final ester was confirmed by boiling point (186-199°C) and infrared index (nD=1.419). It was a colorless liquid that had a slight fragrance of orange and indescribable chemicals. The Infrared spectra confirmed ester

The percent yield of the isopentyl acetate was 74.3% and this low percent yield could have occurred due to some amount of gas escaping from reflux apparatus’ top or apparatus was not fully closed so that some of the heat escaped and did not proceed the reaction well‚ leaving reagents. Another source of error could be that some of the organic layer could have been transferred along with the aqueous layer when the aqueous layer was getting separated from the organic layer by a pipette.

Undoped and Ce doped ZnO thin films were prepared by the sol-gel process. Zinc acetate dehydrate was dissolved in a mixture of absolute ethanol and monoethanolamine (MEA) yielding to a precursor concentration of 0.4 M .The MEA to zinc acetate molar ratio was set to 1. For doped films‚ cerium nitrate was added to the mixture with an atomic percentage fixed at 0.1‚ 0.3‚ 0.5‚ 0.7‚ and 0.9 at.% Ce‚ respectively. The resulting sols were magnetically stirred at 60°C for 1 hour and then aged at room temperature
