23: Stereochemistry of the Addition of Bromine to trans-Cinnamic Acid Introduction/Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to carry out the bromination of trans-cinnamic acid‚ to determine the stereochemistry of the dibromide product of 2‚3-dibromo-3-phenylpropanoic acid‚ and find out whether the reaction proceeds by the usual bromonium ion mechanism or some other mechanism. In this experiment trans-cinnamic acid was mixed with glacial acetic acid and stirred in which then bromine/acetic

Bromination of Trans-Cinnamic Acid Christopher B. Martin CHEM 3411 1 Mechanism of Bromine Addition to Alkenes Understanding the chemical mechanism (order of bonds broken and made as well as intermediates formed) has a great value in chemical synthesis. The chemical mechanism of a reaction will influence the rate of the reaction‚ the stereochemistry of the product(s)‚ and the extent of possible undesired side reactions. Organic reaction mechanisms investigate the path towards a desired product

that Awful Smell”? - Bromine There are 118 known elements to man‚ and each of them differ in its own way. They vary from weight‚ structure‚ color‚ and much more‚ but many of them are similar to others and can be grouped accordingly. One element that varies drastically from others is one whose stench is so horrible‚ that the original name of the element was changed from muride to bromos‚ which means “stench” in Greek. Thus‚ bromine was named. Like many other known elements‚ bromine was discovered by

Bromine’s physical state is a liquid‚ and it’s density is 3.122 g/cm^3. Bromine has a boiling point of 137.8ºF‚ which is also 58.8ºC. isotopes (Br-80)- 69-97 It’s melting point is 19ºF‚ also is -7.2ºC. Bromine is not very reactive as fluorine or chlorine but it’s way more reactive than iodine. Bromine is a nonmetal‚ and it’s a natural element. Bromine is known to be a very dense reddish brown toned liquid when formed compounds with elements such as chlorine‚ it works as a bleaching agent. It evaporates

Stereochemistry of Dihydroxylation Reactions Question: Can the stereochemical outcome of dihydroxylation reactions be determined by thin layer chromatography? Overview: In this experiment‚ you will perform two reactions that transform alkenes into diols. While similar in functional group transformation‚ these reactions may lead to stereochemically different products. The two possible products are diastereomers of one another‚ and therefore have different physical chracteristics. After
