orange (the peel contains limonene‚ which is a terpene) and a dichloromethane solution of clove oil (which contains eugenol‚ an acetogenin). To isolate the eugenol‚ 20 mL of dichloromethane solution of clove oil was extracted twice; each time with a 15 mL portion of 3M NaOH. The aqueous extracts were then combined and acidified with approximately 17.6 mL of 6M aqueous HCl. Eugenol was isolated from the aqueous mixture by two extractions of 10 mL portions of dichloromethane. The dichloromethane extracts

cloves. Introduction By performing steam distillation we can isolate eugenol at lower temperature than its usual boiling point of 248 degree Celsius. Eugenol belongs to a category called essential oil. Many of these compounds are used as flavoring and perfumes and in the past were considered the essence of plant from which they were derived.

techniques were used to extract a crude‚ eugenol‚ and acetyleugenol product sample. These samples were submitted for GC analysis and the normalization area percents were calculated to confirm their purity; for the crude sample it was 93.95% eugenol and 6.05% acetyleugenol‚ for the eugenol sample it was 100% eugenol and 0% acetyleugenol‚ and for the acetyleugenol sample it was 24.84% eugenol and 75.16% acetyleugenol. The IR spectrum was also found for the eugenol and acetyleguenol products‚ which confirmed

Objective: In steam distillation lab (lab 3)‚ we must obtain pure Eugenol from cloves through the process of steam distillation. In the crystallization lab (lab 4) part 1‚ we must acquire the best possible pure crystallization of acetylsalicylic acid from aspirin and in part 2 we must obtain a similar pure crystallization of benzil from an impure mixture of benzil. Materials: In lab 3‚ we used 75 g of cloves from which we must extract Eugenol. Water was largely used as a solvent. A polar solvent used

the aromatic hydroxyl compound‚ eugenol from crushed cloves using steam distillation. After conducting the distillation‚ the expected two layers were not visible in the centrifuge tube. Subsequently‚ the extraction and evaporation did not produce the expected oil. This result is probably due to the collection of only water vapor during distillation. From another group’s data‚ 3.80% of the oil was recovered from the cloves in which the major component is eugenol. The IR spectrum obtained is consistent

This is because prior to the the split injection and addition of helium gas‚ the concentration of the clove oil was too high to process. Eugenol and beta- caryophyllene were expected to have a high percent composition as they are the two major components in clove oil. Before the percentages could be determined‚ a new total area from the graph needed to be calculated. This was because a portion
