Preparation of Bromotriphenylmethane Abstract The structure of a major component of star anise oil was derived by analyzing its IR spectroscopy melting point of after oxidation and purification. From the evidence obtained‚ it was concluded that the exact structured should be p-methoxybenzoic acid. Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to determine the structure of the major component of star anise oil. It is already known that this component has a molecular formula C10H12O. This

SYNTHESIS OF TRANS-9-(2-PHENYLETHENYL) ANTHRACENE (A WITTIG REACTION) Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to convert carbonyl compounds to alkenes using Wittig reaction. In this case we will be synthesizing Trans-9-(2-phenylethenyl) anthracene from benzyltriphenylphosphonium chloride and 9-anthraldehyde. We will also aim to obtaining a high percent yield and purity for the synthesis of Trans-9-(2-phenylethenyl) anthracene. The mechanism for this reaction goes thus:

Alum Synthesis: The Chemical Process of Recycling Aluminum Introduction By recycling aluminum cans‚ the costs and energy savings are dramatically more resourceful and efficient than producing aluminum from what it is naturally found in‚ bauxite ore. The process of recycling aluminum to produce potassium aluminum sulfate‚ a common alum‚ will be done through a serious of chemical reactions. Through this reaction‚ percent yield will be determined. Materials and Methods The mass of a 250 mL

Although I love science‚ I encountered more problems in this subject than any other. Recently‚ I was assigned a lab. The purpose was to let Copper Sulfate react with Aluminum and obtain Copper. Before the experiment‚ I set up the stoichiometric equation carefully‚ predicting the production of Copper using my assigned mass of Copper Sulfate. Additionally‚ I intentionally made Copper Sulfate an excess in my equation‚ since it would be dissolved in water and I would only have to collect Copper at the

Experiment 23: Synthesis of an Alkene April 5‚ 2013 Purpose: Results and Discussion The weight of our n-Butyl Bromide sample (actual yield) was 0.09g. The percent yield was found to be 4.38%. Only 0.09g of the theoretical 2.055g yield was obtained. The boiling point was 104° C‚ which is higher than the literature value of 101° C. This is due to the sample being somewhat impure‚ as impurities tend to increase boiling point. When IR spectroscopy was performed‚ there were no OH stretches
