IR ATR spectra of the solid complex was acquired along with a solution cell IR of the complex in methylene chloride. According to the lab manual used for this experiment two characteristic carbonyl IR stretches of MesMo(CO)3 occur strongly around 2000 cm-1. The stretches at 1940 and 1855 cm-1 in the IR ATR spectra are possible indicators of carbonyl stretches in the compound that was

Synthesis of Benzoin Date of Experiment: 1-26-15 Chelsea Price Lab Partner: Joey Simmons Abstract: In this experiment‚ benzoin was synthesized from benzaldehyde‚ using thiamine hydrochloric acid as a catalyst. The thiamine HCl was deprotonated by sodium hydroxide and acted as a nucleophile to attack the benzaldehyde. A water-cooled condenser was used to heat the solution at reflux. Vacuum filtration was used to wash and dry the product. The benzoin product was recrystallized

Multistep Synthesis of Benzilic Acid The synthesis of several complex organic compounds follows a multistep synthesis. "Multistep synthesis" refers to the procedure in which the product of one reaction serves as the starting material in the subsequent reaction. The multistep synthesis of benzilic acid begins with a conversion benzaldehyde to benzoin through a condensation reaction. The benzoin then oxidizes into benzil‚ which undergoes rearrangement to give benzilic acid. Benzoin Synthesis * When

Purpose Acetophenetidin can be formed through two methods‚ Williamson ether synthesis and amide synthesis. By working in groups of two we were able to complete both methods of synthesis routes. The end result should be the synthesis of a similar product‚ by verification between the two individuals. Reaction Experiment and Observations Amide Synthesis of Acetophenetidin The Synthesis reaction began by removing the colored impurities from the p-phenetidine‚ accomplished by mixing

Our data displayed supports the notion that by increasing the acidity of the catalyst‚ the production of aspirin will increase. Our hypothesis was proven correct. In our data‚ we calculated the percent yield and percent error of each trial. We also calculated the average of the percent yields and the percent errors of each catalyst. In the end‚ we saw that for the sulphuric acid catalyzed aspirin‚ we saw an average of 69.7% percent yield and an average 30.3% percent error. As for the phosphoric acid

Experiment 1 Synthesis of Acetaminophen Clifford Tse 20529845 Partner – Raminder Dhanoa TA – Xiao Qi CHEM 123L - 012 February 6‚ 2014 Introduction Acetaminophen‚ also commonly known as Tylenol‚ is an over-the-counter medicine used to relieve pain and reduce fevers. Within this experiment‚ Acetaminophen will be formed through the reaction between p-aminophenol and acetic anhydride. This reaction will incur Acetaminophen as a crude solid being impure‚ which will be purified further through

The Grignard Synthesis of Triphenylmethanol Abstract: Grignard synthesis of triphenylmethanol was achieved by use of the Grignard reagent phenyl magesium brominde. The organometallic grignard reagent was synthesized by use of a reflux apparatus recrystallization techniques. Once synthesized it was used in a Grignard reaction that involved nucleophilic addition to a carbonyl in order to make triphenylmethanol. The final product was solidified and recrystallized and spectral data was

ineffective. In order to help resolve the crisis‚ antibiotics were found through screenings of soil microorganisms. However‚ soil microorganism’s antibiotics were depleted by the 1960s and their antibiotic effects were unable to be replicated through synthesis. In this experiment‚ the researchers developed numerous methods to cultivate uncultured organisms in their environment. The goal of this experiment was to find antimicrobials in the uncultured soil. Through this successful experiment‚ the researchers

In this mutation a single nucleotide polymorphism changes a cytosine into a thymine that then can be detected using the polymerase chain reaction technique (Biology 225 lab manual‚ S2017). In this experiment amplification Refractory Mutation System PCR was used to detect this nucleotide change. Two primers were used in two different PCR reactions‚ one to detect the wild type allele and the other to detect the mutant allele
