Isoamyl Acetate Synthesis through Fischer Reaction Lesaca‚ Anna*‚ Lopez‚ Maria Flor‚ Lu‚ Ricardo‚ Magdurulan‚ Tricia 2Biology6‚ Department of Biology‚ College of Science‚ UST‚ Manila annalesaca@yahoo.com Abstract Esters are a type of functional group that causes distinguishable flavors or odors of some fruits. It can be synthesized by Fischer reaction‚ which is an acid-catalyzed reaction of an alcohol and carboxylic acid. One of the esters known for its characteristic banana flavor is the isoamyl

Lab #24- Preparation 4-Methylcyclohexene Introduction: The goals in this lab were to have a reaction occur with 4-methylcyclohexanol and an acid catalyst to form our product of 4-methylcyclohexene via an E1 reaction. This reaction is accomplished by removing the –OH group on 4-methylcyclohexanol via dehydration and to have a double bond form via a loss of a hydrogen on a β-Carbon. Many techniques and skills were developed in this lab. Among them were dehydration‚ isolation‚ drying

RECYCLING ALUMINUM PURPOSE To determine the mass of a hydrated aluminum potassium sulfate salt in a sample of impure scrap aluminum from a common beverage can. The sample will be passed through a filter paper using a funnel‚ after being boiled on a hot plate in a fume hood and dissolved in a solution of potassium hydroxide to remove the impurities. By adding an excess of sulfuric acid and cooling the solution in an ice bath‚ the technique of vacuum filtration using a Buchner funnel will be employed
