Some RNA molecules play an active role within cells by catalyzing biological reactions‚ controlling gene expression‚ or sensing and communicating responses to cellular signals. One of these active processes is protein synthesis‚ a universal function whereby mRNA molecules direct the assembly of proteins on ribosomes

Synthesis of Acetaminophen Lab Report Bijal Patel‚ 20467049 Partner: Poojan Parikh T.A.’s: Long Pu CHEM 123L‚ Section: 006‚ Rm: ESC 149 Tuesday February 4‚ 2013‚ 2:30pm-5:20pm Experiment Done: Tuesday January 22‚ 2013 Introduction Acetaminophen was first introduced in 1955 (Richman‚ 2004). It is an over-the-counter drug that relieves pain and reduced fevers. Acetaminophen is considered an alternate to aspirin since it does not irritate the stomach (Richman‚ 2004). It also has very

Experiment 2 and 3: Synthesis of Aspirin and Determination of Melting Point A. Abstract Aspirin is the common name for the compound acetylsalicylic acid‚ widely used as a fever reducer and as a pain killer. The first part of the experiment aims to synthesize aspirin from the reaction of salicylic acid with acetic anhydride with the aid of phosphoric acid as a catalyst. The second part of the experiment aims to assess the purity of aspirin through the determination of its melting point and

of MPTP dramatically accelerates this process in the course of days and not years (Hanson et al.‚ 2015). Additionally consumption results in a reduction of glutathione content (Sian et al.‚ 1999). What have been good and bad consequences of the synthesis of MPTP? MPTP negatively affects the body by penetrating the blood-brain barrier and entering the brain cells. MPTP is not toxic‚ however when it oxidizes it forms MPP+ which is toxic. Toxic oxidation later reaches the extracellular fluid and

formaldehyde is produced annually all around the world. Synthesis of Formaldehyde Formaldehyde is produced by catalytic oxidation of methanol. A mixture of molybdenum and iron or silver is used as a catalyst in such a reaction. But a more commonly used process is FORMAX. In this process‚ methanol and oxygen react at temperatures more than 250ºC in presence of vanadium to produce formaldehyde. The following chemical equation represents the reaction that takes place. 2CH3OH + O2---> 2CH2O + 2H20

Synthesis of DEET Abstract: For this experiment m-toluic acid was reacted with thionyl chloride resulting in a nucleophilic acyl substitution which could then be used to create DEET with excess diethyl amine (Figure 1). This was done by adding diethyl amine drop wise using a seperatory funnel which resulted in a gas formation which was controlled with a condenser attached to a gas vacuum. The resulting mixture was then washed to remove excess acids and bases and rotovapped. DEET was synthesized

Properties and Reactions of Hydrocarbons Abstract Introduction Hydrocarbons are organic materials that contain only carbon and hydrogen atoms‚ these molecules can be saturated or unsaturated and acyclic‚ cyclic‚ or aromatic. In this experiment we used a variety of methods to examine the physical and chemical properties of hydrocarbons. The first experiment we tested a variety of solvents to see if they dissolved our alkane (Decalin). One would expect that non-polar solvents will dissolve

Soc. 1663 (1927) HTML by Rhodium No direct synthesis of safrole has been recorded‚ the most recent attempt being that of Baker and Robinson (JCS‚ 1925‚ 127‚ 1424)‚ who distilled the product of the action of silver oxide and water upon gamma-piperonylpropyltrimethylammonium iodide‚ but obtained isosafrole‚ the double bond moving into the position of greater stability.
