Grignard reagent‚ and react it with benzophenone to give triphenylmethanol. Once made‚ the Grignard reagent will do a nucleophilic attack on the carbonyl carbon of the ketone‚ benzophenone. The result is an alkoxide that is then protonated to give the alcohol‚ triphenylmethanol. The purity of the final product will then be considered by melting point and IR spectroscopy. Final purified triphenylmethanol weighed 8.02 grams and melted at 158.5-162 degrees Celsius. Introduction: Grignard reagents are

Experiment 1: Calorimetry INTRODUCTION In the calibration of the calorimeter‚ the net ionic equation used is H+(aq) + OH-(aq) H2O(l). The reaction released heat and is said to be exothermic. HCl is the limiting reactant of the reaction and o.oo5 moles of it was used. The heat generated by the reaction is 55.8 kJ. The sign of T of the reaction used for calibration is opposite to that of H. In the determination of heats of reaction‚ the reaction of 15 mL 1 M CuSO4 + 0.05 g Zn produced a

Esmeralda Curiel Organic Chemistry October 21‚ 2014 Experiment 41- 1‚4-Diphenyl-1‚3-Butadiene INTRODUCTION The study of the Wittig Reaction is important because it is often used to form alkenes from carbonyl compounds. The purpose of this experiment is to isolate the trans‚ trans-1‚4-diphenyl-1‚3-butadiene‚ which is formed by a Wittig reaction along with the cis‚ trans isomeric diene. The reaction is carried out in two steps. First the Wittig salt is obtained through a simple nucleophilic displacement

Aspirin and salicylic acid have similar properties‚ but many choose aspirin for medicine because it is not as acidic as salicylic acid. The limiting reagent limits how much product can be synthesized. Once

Observing a Limiting Reactant An experiment was carried out to predict the limiting reactant in a chemical reaction between Magnesium and Hydrochloric acid‚ using the mole concept. Limiting Reactant: It is the reactant that will deplete or will be used up first during a chemical reaction. Limiting reactant also determine how long the reaction will last for. Balanced Equation: Mg + 2HCl = MgCl2 + H2 The balanced equation is needed to determine the mole ratio between the two reactants. From

Lindsey Stockton. 3/2/2013. Section 16093. Determination of % by mass of NaCO3 in Alka-Seltzer Tablets Alka-Seltzer is an effervescent antacid typically used for pain relief and neutralizing stomach acid to alleviate indigestion. Alka-Seltzer tablets contain Aspirin‚ Citric Acid (CH3COOH)‚ and Sodium Bicarbonate (NaCO3). When the tablet is placed in water it undergoes an acid-base reaction and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is a byproduct that causes the notorious “Fizz”. The objective of the lab

universal Common ancestor or LUCA. Given that bacteria and archaea are thought to be the earliest domains‚ Martin and his team classified the known protein-coding genes of both archaea and bacteria. They examined the sequence of the genes to determine the ancestral gene‚ of which the particular genes came from. From this process‚ they narrowed down the genes from about six million to three hundred thirty five genes that were likely to exist in LUCA. The probable genes make up LUCA and the life requirements
