Fe3o4 Lab Report
In this work, the Fe3O4 NPs were synthesized by a co-precipitation method. The prepared Fe3O4 particles were dispersed well in water and stay stable for several days. FT-IR spectra of Fe3O4, mercaptosuccinic acid and mercaptosuccinic acid functionalized Fe3O4 are shown in Figure 1(a-c), respectively. In Figure 1a, the sharp band at about 585 cm-1 corresponds to the characteristic Fe–O vibration peak and the bands at around 3420 cm-1 are due to the stretching vibrations of the hydroxyls (–OH) on the surface of the Fe3O4. In Figure 1c, the
S-H stretching vibrations of mercaptosuccinic acid appears in 2800 cm−1، C-H stretching vibrations appears in 2880 cm−1 and C-S appears in 1450 cm−1. This indicated that the mercaptosuccinic acid was successfully

In the first step, Fe3O4 NPs were prepared from the co-precipitation method (a). In the second step, immobilization and solubilization were performed by sonicating the mixture of Fe3O4 and mercaptosuccinic acid in water (b). Thirdly, Pd2+ and Ni2+ ions attached on to the surfaces of the Fe3O4 spheres by using the interaction between the S-H groups of the mercaptosuccinic acid and the metal ions and self-assembled (c). In the next step, the growing process initiated by the addition of NaBH4 (d), and Pd-Ni/Fe3O4 core-shell structures were made after crystal growing …show more content…

Since the catalyst can be separated from the reaction mixture using external magnetic field, therefore it recovered with a simple magnet after dilution of the reaction mixture with CH2Cl2. The results exhibited that the catalyst can be reused at least for six consecutive cycles without noticeable losing activity (Figure 5). Figure 5.

    Chemists often find a method to determine the level of “greenness” of a chemical reaction, or its “atom economy”. A higher atom economy is preferable because a greater amount of the reactants will be present in the product as opposed to the byproduct.1 A Suzuki reaction is classified as an organic, coupling reaction that includes boronic acid and a halide that are catalyzed by a palladium complex under basic conditions. Other palladium- catalyzed coupling mechanisms include the Heck and Stille reactions. Palladium typically exists in the oxidation states of 0, +2, and +4. PdCl2 is usually the starting compound for several other heterogeneous palladium catalysts such as Pd/C and Pd/BaSO4.1 Suzuki coupling is an efficient way to…

    The objective of this experiment is to successfully perform a dehydration of 1-butanol and 2-butanol, also dehydrobromination of 1-bromobutane and 2-bromobutane to form the alkene products 1-butene, trans-2-butene, and cis-2-butene. The dehydration reactions react under and acid-catalysis which follows an E1 mechanism. It was found that dehydration of 1-butanol yielded 3.84% cis-2-butene, 81.83% trans-2-butene, and 14.33% 1-butene, while 2-butanol is unknown due to mechanical issues with the GC machine. For the dehydrobromination, with the addition of a strong base that can abstract a proton, which then pushes off the leaving group and a new sigma bond makes a new π-bond all at one time, this is follows E2 mechanism. It was found that the dehydrobromination of 1-bromobutane yielded 100% 1-butene, while 2-bromobutane yielded 13.09% cis-2-butene, 49.95% trans-2-butene, and 36.97% 1-butene.…

    An ionic Iron solution with a known concentration of 4.047x10-3 M was obtained. A 250-mL sample of a 10-fold dilution of this ionic iron solution and 5 drops of concentrated HNO3 was made. This solution served as the source of ionic Iron for the remainder of the lab and was labeled “stock ionic Iron solution.” Next, a 50-mL aqueous ionic Iron and FerroZine® complex solution was prepared by adding 5.00mL stock ionic Iron, 3-mL of acetic acid buffer, 2-mL of 5% hydroxylamine hydrochloride, allowing five minutes for hydroxylamine to reduce Fe3+ to Fe2+, adding 2.5-mL of 0.01 M FerroZine® solution, and mixing well. A single beam Agilent technologies CARY60-UV-Vis Spectrophotometer was then employed to determine the optimum wavelength in the visible spectrum of the ionic Iron and FerroZine® complex.…

    A Grignard reagent was produced by reacting ~0.15 g of magnesium metal, stir vane, 0.80 mL of bromobenzene (0.70 mL) and anhydrous diethyl ether (20.0 mL) mixture in a 20-mL round-bottom flask (reflux apparatus). The apparatus was elevated from the hot plate and heated at 60°C for 15 minutes. Brownish-gray solution was observed. The remainder bromobenzene/ether mixture was added to the round bottom flask drop-wise with additional washing of ~2.0 mL of diethyl ether. Iodine (catalyst) was added to facilitate the reaction. Phenylmagnesium bromide was obtained upon cooling of the solution to room temperature. Benzophenone (1.09 g) and diethyl ether (2.0 mL) mixture was then reacted with the Grignard product for 15 minutes. Red solidified adduct was observed. Next HCl (6.0 mL) was added drop-wise to the adduct; bilayer of triphenylmethanol and inorganic impurities was observed. The mixture was then filtered using the reparatory funnel. The round-bottom flask was washed with additional ether (5.0 mL) and re-extracted. Sodium sulfate was then added to dry the solution. Aqueous solution was then decanted into an Erlenmeyer flask and evaporated in a hot water bath (50°C) with air until oily solid was observed. Hot petroleum ether (3.0 mL) was added drop-wise to dissolve the by-products and cooled to room temperature. Upon cooling, the crude was then vacuum filtered and collected. Hot Isopropyl alcohol was then…

    The purpose of this lab is reach and be able to calculate the equivalence point when we use titration to neutralize a base with acid. The process of the lab was determining the volume of a solution needed to react with a given mass or volume of a sample is called titration. The equivalence point is when the same number of moles of acid and moles of base has been added. Phenolphthalein is used as an indicator because it will have a color change when the equivalence point has been reached.…

    Crystallochemical relationship is one whereby the main structural features act as exhaustive aspects on the similar basis as the closely-related composition of chemicals. It is extremely important to have an understanding of the crystallochemical relationship between structures and temperature as having knowledge of it leads to a perfection in the structures formation. This is especially so as the structural parameters of FePO4 falls very closely to the values that are limited i.e. too high a pressure causing instability in the thermal conditions, thus it is in even greater importance that the amount of temperature used is studied in detail since it is a determinant of thermal stability of the parameters of the present structure.…
