For the first part of the experiment‚ it began by weighing 4.0ml of methyl salicylate into a flask—a stir bar was added. While stirring‚ 40ml of 6M sodium hydroxide was added and the solution was heated and boiled for about 15 minutes. After the 15 minutes‚ a bit of water was used to wash down the sides of the flask and the solution was cooled. It was boiled for another 15 minutes‚ after this the solution was cooled for 5 minutes in an ice water bath. While the flaks was in the ice bath‚ 50ml of

Nitration of Naphthalene Wed 2/25/2015 Lab report # 1 Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to nitrate naphthalene with nitronium ion‚ which is formed at low concentration from a reaction of nitric acid and sulfuric acid. The percent yield from the experiment was 54.4% of the product‚ and the melting point of the possible results were 59 °C for 1-nitronaphthalene‚ and 78°C for 2-nitronaphthalene. Introduction: Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons such as naphthalene can be nitrated

substitution reaction is the attack of a benzene ring on an electrophilic species resulting in the substitution of a proton with a functional group. The electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction nitration is used to nitrate methyl benzoate and acetanilide with a nitronium ion. Crystallization was used to purify the product. The melting point was used to determine its purity and the regiochemistry of the products. The methyl benzoate reaction product‚ methyl nitrobenzoate‚ was determined to be meta-substituted

ABSTRACT This experiment was conducted to synthesize methyl benzoate form benzoic acid and methanol by using the Fischer esterification method. The Fischer exterification technique is utilized in the academic and industrial settings due to the simplified synthesis and safety parameters of the overall reaction. Both benzoic acid and methanol are relatively cheap to obtain from a commercial source as well as being easy to store with a relatively long shelf life. The Fischer esterification method is

Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to synthesize methyl nitrobenzoate from methyl benzoate‚ concentrated HNO3‚ and concentrated H2SO4 via an electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction. Reaction Procedures/ Observations Use a 50 ml beaker to cool about 6 ml of concentrated sulfuric acid in an ice water bath. Weigh the vial containing about 3 grams of methyl benzoate and add it to the cooled sulfuric acid. Next pour about 2 ml of sulfuric acid to the nitric acid in the vial
