Vidallon‚ Mark Louis P. Date Performed: February 20‚ 2012 CHEM44.1 2L Date Submitted: March 12‚ 2012 MIXED-ALDOL CONDENSATION Synthesis of Cinnamaldehyde I. Introduction Cinnamaldehyde‚ cinnamic aldehyde or 3-phenyl-2-propenal is the major constituent of cinnamon oil‚ extracted from several species of Cinnamomum (C. verum‚ C. burmanii‚ C. cassia)‚ under the family Lauraceae‚ a group of evergreen trees. Cinnamon bark (particularly C. verum) yields 0.4-0.8% oil‚ which contains 60-80% cinnamaldehyde

result in criminal charges being filed. If carried out by individuals unskilled at chemistry they could result in serious bodily harm. MDMA ("Ecstasy") is a semi-synthetic compound which can be made relatively easily from available precursors. Synthesis instructions exist which can be followed by an amateur with very little knowledge of chemistry. However‚ people with less than 2 years of college chemistry experience would probably not be capable of sucessfully synthesizing MDMA‚ and would either

Boyle‚ J.‚ 2016). In this paper I’m going to discuss several reasons why transcultural nursing is a necessary specialty according to Madeleine. I will then define what cultural diversity means to me and how its relationship relates to the field of nursing. To finish‚ I will explain how I provide culturally sensitive care to my patients. In our textbook‚ Madeleine describes eight reasons why transcultural nursing is needed. She begins to explain that transcultural nursing is important because there

Sarah Khan Bivins-5th April 20th‚ 2013 Protein Synthesis Every day‚ you take in an abundance of different biomolecules; one of them being proteins. Have you ever wondered how proteins are made? They don’t just grow from a tree or fall from the sky‚ they are made through a process called protein synthesis. Protein synthesis is broken up in two two steps: transcription and translation. Transcription starts inside the nucleus when the DNA is unzipped by helicase. Following that‚ the mRNA nucleotides

each member of a family shares similar genes that places them at risk for developing certain genetic conditions. Obtaining a family genetic history is an essential nursing skill that requires expertise and the proper knowledge to assess these families (Kaakinen et al.‚ 2015). The purpose of this paper is to complete a genomic nursing assessment. Therefore‚ with this being said‚ I will identify three generations of one family and discuss a brief health history of each family. I will also explore the

Synthesis of Aspirin Name: Xuanyi Li Teaching assistant: Deirdre Zwilling November 15‚ 2009 Purpose: To synthesize aspirin‚ a common analgesic drug‚ via nucleophilic acid-catalyzed substitution reaction of salicyclic acid with acetic anhydride. The whole reaction is catalyzed by phosphoric acid. (The experiment involved three parts: The synthesis of aspirin‚ the isolation and purification of aspirin‚ and the estimation of the purity of the final product.) [pic] Procedure[1]: A mixture

Synthesis of Aspirin Learning Goals 1. To synthesize aspirin from salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. 2. To purify the crude product by Recrystallization. Introduction Most drugs are chemical compounds which are described as "organic compounds" because they are comprised primarily of the elements carbon‚ hydrogen and oxygen. The present experiment will be the synthesis of a familiar organic compound called aspirin. The common chemical name is acetylsalicylic acid. Aspirin‚ the
