UNIVERSITY OF THE GAMBIA LECTURE NOTES COURSE: PRINCIPLES OF CHEMISTRY II (ORGANIC CHEMISTRY) CODE: CHM 161 2ND SEMESTER SESSION: 2012/2013 LECTURER: ANTHONY F. ADJIVON UNIT 1 INTRODUCTION Organic chemistry started as the chemistry of life‚ when that was thought to be different from the chemistry in the laboratory. Then it became the chemistry of carbon compounds‚ especially those found in coal. Now it is both. It is the chemistry of the compounds of carbon along with other elements

compound and the second one is the modification of the polymer backbone to activate the matrix (Figure 1). The activation step produces the electrophilic group on the support material‚ so that the support material couples /reacts with the strong nucleophiles on the proteins [2]. For example glutaraldehyde is the activation method‚ in this reaction the amine group reacts with the activated matrix [39]. The covalent binding is normally formed between the functional group in the support matrix and the

Experiment 13: Synthesis of 1- Bromobutane An SN2 Reaction Theory: One of the methods of preparing alkyl halides is via the nucleophilic substitution reactions of alcohols. Alcohols are inexpensive materials and easy to maintain. However‚ they are a poor leaving group the OH group is a problem in nucleophilic substitution‚ this problem is fixed by converting the alcohol into H2O. Objective: The objective of this lab is to observe the synthesis of 1-bromobutane in an SN2 reaction‚ to see how

Lab 1: Synthesis of Aspirin Introduction: The purpose of this lab was to demonstrate the ability to easily alter the molecular structure of a compound to greatly increase its utility. In this case‚ an acetyl group was added to salicylic acid‚ a naturally occurring compound with significant pharmaceutical value. Without the addition of the acetyl group‚ salicylic acid is an irritant to the gastro-intestinal (GI) tract. Once the acetyl group is added via a simple reaction‚ acetylsalicylic

The Grignard Synthesis of Triphenylmethanol Organic Chemistry Lab II March 19‚ 2012 Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to synthesize the Grignard reagent‚ phenyl magnesium bromide‚ and then use the manufactured Grignard reagent to synthesize the alcohol‚ triphenylmethanol‚ by reacting with benzophenone and protonation by H3O+. The triphenylmethanol was purified by recrystallization. The melting point‚ Infrared Spectroscopy‚ 13C NMR‚ and 1H NMR were used to characterize and confirm

Discussion and Scientific Explanations The reaction was conducted using granular tin and hydrochloric acid. This mixture provided both a source of electrons and protons1. The electrons worked as the reducing agent in this mechanism1. Granular tin was chosen over a single plate of tin due to the fact that it would take much more time and effort to fully dissolve a single plate of tin. A plate of tin would be more bonded to each other and less likely to be reactive. With the addition of the concentrated
