Hydrolysis of tert-butyl Chloride in different solvents Practical conducted on 5 March‚ 2013 Reported by Pham Vu Hung on 10 March‚ 2013 Introduction: This practical is meant to measure the rate of reaction of the hydrolysis of tertiary-butyl chloride –a colorless‚ liquid organic compound at room temperature that is sparingly soluble in water - in water/acetone and water/isopropanol mixtures. Since there are many influencing factors for the rate of reaction‚ all are kept constant but the

of t-Butyl-Chloride March 8 & 15‚ 2012 Theory: Alkyl halides can be synthesized when alcohols react with hydrogen halides. An alkyl halide is a halogen-substituted alkane‚ and a hydrogen halide is a compound consisting of a hydrogen bonded to a halogen (H-X). Alkyl halides are classified as primary‚ secondary‚ or tertiary depending on the number of alkyl substituents directly attached to the carbon bearing the halogen atom. The purpose of this laboratory experiment was to prepare t-butyl-chloride

The tert-butyl group has been broadly used to protect functional groups in natural product synthesis such as amino acid‚ peptide and protein chemistry [1]. The tert-butoxycarbonyl (BOC) group is known as protecting group for amides in organic synthesis. The introduction of BOC group improves the solubility of organic precursors and their processability in organic synthesizes [2]. The methyl substituted pyridine derivatives were widely reported for their various biological activities such as anxiolytic

MTBE in Missouri Starting in the 1970’s Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE) was put in gasoline to boost octane. In 1999 the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommended phasing out the use of MTBE which was found to be a cancer causing chemical. MTBE contaminated water thru public and private water wells. In 2002 Missouri lawmakers decided to phase out MTBE. The state wide phase out was complete on July 1‚ 2005 Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether was commonly put as an additive in gasoline to reduce

Nucleophilic Substitution | Synthesis of n-Butyl Bromide and t-Pentyl Chloride | | Jessica | [Pick the date] | Abstract The synthesis of the alkyl halide n-Butyl Bromide from alcohol is the foundation for the experiment. During the isolation of the n-butyl bromide‚ the crude product is washed with sulfuric acid‚ water‚ and sodium bicarbonate to remove any remaining acid or n-butyl alcohol. The primary alkyl halide halide n-butyl bromide is prepared by allowing n-butyl alcohol to react with sodium bromide

Sodium chloride‚ also known as salt‚ common salt‚ table salt‚ or halite‚ is an ionic compound with the formula NaCl. Sodium chloride is the salt most responsible for the salinity of the ocean and of the extracellular fluid of many multicellular organisms. As the major ingredient in edible salt‚ it is commonly used as a condiment and food preservative. [edit] Properties Thermal conductivity of pure NaCl as a function of temperature has a maximum of 2.03 W/(cm K) at 8 K and decreases to 0.069 at 314

Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to determine the number of moles of water molecules of crystallization of a sample of hydrated Barium Chloride. This can be calculated using Gravimetric Analysis and to indirectly determine the percent composition of a hydrate by taking advantage of its chemical properties. Introduction: Gravimetric procedures are analytical methods in which the results are determined from the masses of starting materials and products. These methods

Title: Prep of t-Butyl Chloride via SN1 Reaction Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to synthesize tert-butyl chloride via an SN1 reaction. t-Butyl Chloride was synthesized from t-Butyl Alcohol using hydrochloric acid in separatory funnel; isolation of t-Butyl Chloride was done under distillation conditions. The experiment resulted in 8.29grams of purified compound‚ which is a 66.27 percent yield. Procedure: As per handout with changes Equation: Mechanism: Results: (Scan

Acetyl chloride‚ CH3COCl‚ also known as ethanoyl chloride or acyl chloride‚ is an acid chloride derived from acetic acid. It belongs to the class of organic compounds called acyl halides. It is a colorless liquid. Acetyl chloride does not exist in nature‚ because contact with water would hydrolyze it into acetic acid and hydrogen chloride. In fact‚ if handled in open air it gives off white smoke owing to the hydrolysis from the moisture in the air. The "smoke" is actually small droplets of hydrochloric
