In second experiment‚ precipitation was found when 6 drops of 2‚4-dinitrophenylhydrazine were added to both 5 drops of benzaldehyde and 5 drops of acetophenone. Based on these data‚ it is possible to find alcohol by oxidation and aldehyde by observing precipitation Introduction This experiments is to find if one substance has alcohols‚ aldehydes or ketones. If one reactant is alcohol‚ the color

The objective of this experiment was to synthesize 3-nitrochalcone from 3- nitrobenzaldehyde. This was accomplished with a Diels-Alder reaction that utilized 3-nitrobenzaldehyde and acetophenone. After the reaction was completed‚ purification of the product was conducted using semi-microscale recrystallization. The melting point of the product was 136-141 oC‚ which is in the close vicinity of the literature melting point of 146 oC. The theoretical yield of 3-nitrochalcone was 0.253g and the

Aldol Condensation Formal Abstract: An aldol condensation reaction was performed on acetophenone using p-anisaldehyde and sodium hydroxide as a base. This produced trans-p-anisalacetophenone in the form of a fluffy yellow crystal. The reaction was performed in a test tube and sodium hydroxide was added drop by drop followed by recrystallization and vacuum filtration. In order to verify the presence of the ketone 2‚4-dinitrophenylhydrazone was synthesized and reacted with trans-p-anisalacetophenone

from the reaction between p-anisaldehyde and acetophenone with the presence sodium hydroxide. The reaction also showed the importance of an enolate and the role it played in the mechanism. Sodium hydroxide acts as a catalyst in this experiment and is chosen because of its basic conditions and pH. The acetophenone carries an alpha hydrogen that has a pKa between 18 and 20. This alpha hydrogen is acidic because of its location near the carbonyl on acetophenone. When the sodium hydroxide is added‚ it deprotonates

In order to study the influence of reaction time‚ acetophenone with complex 2 (0.1 mol%) under standard conditions was monitored by GC-MS analysis taking 0.1 mL aliquots of the reaction mixture at intervals of 1 h. As can be observed in the conversion vs time plots‚ the formation of 1-phenylethanol was increased with the progress of the reaction‚ reached a maximum and then remained unchanged (Fig. 4). Reasonably good conversion (97.4%) for the formation of 1-phenylethanol was observed at the optimum

It is a compound reaction that involves an aldol reaction and then dehydration. This overall reaction is known as the Clasien-Schmidt condensation. Aldol addition occurs when an aldehyde forms an aldol in equilibrium. Usually two molecules of aldehydes combine with a base two
