Lab 1: Alkene Addition: Bromination of (E)-stilbene I. Introduction: 1. The purpose of the experiment was to perform an electrophilic addition reaction by using pyridinium tribromide to brominate (E)-stilbene and to identify whether it formed the meso- or racemic product through melting point analysis. 2. This is the mechanism for the bromination of (E)-stilbene. However‚ this is the mechanism for Br2 and in class we us Pyridinium Tribromide instead due to the difficulties associated

Abstract The experiment was conducted‚ which metals manganese (Mn3+)‚ Cobalt (Co3+) and Copper Cu3+ was prepared and acac complexes where also obtained. Recrystallization was performed of which Mn(acac)3 ‚Co(acac)3 and Cu(acac)3 was obtained at percentage yield of 32%‚ 85.6% & 92% for each of acac’s. TLC was performed which results deduced unknown mixture both contained manganese and cobalt since it had the same Rf vaues. Experiment aims The aim of the experiment was to prepare metal

Synthesis and Isolation of Expectorant Guaifenesin By: Ben DuBose Dr. Cossey 3361L Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to isolate and synthesize Guaifenesin. Isolation was performed with the use of two Guai-Aid Tablets‚ each of which contained 400mg of pure Guaifenesin. Reflux‚ a technique used to heat a mixture without evaporating the solution‚ was used to synthesize Guaifenesin through a Williamson Ether Synthesis reaction with an SN2 mechanism. Introduction

Jacobsen’s Method of Epoxidation of an Alkene | | Abstract Various types of reactions were completed to first create and then use Jacobsen’s catalyst in the asymmetric epoxidation of an unknown alkene with bleach in the laboratory. The chiral epoxide synthesized was then characterized with GC/MS and NMR. With this information the unknown alkene was able to be identified as 4-chlorostyrene.
