Synthesis of Salicylic Acid from Wintergreen Oil Objective – Preparation of salicylic acid (organic synthesis) from methyl salicylate utilizing previously used procedure from the nineteenth century. The final product will then be evaluated in comparison to salicylic acid made from benzene. Discussion – In this synthesis‚ methyl salicylate is the starting material or precursor and salicylic acid is the target product. It is the major constituent of wintergreen oil. The difference in structures

I. Carbonyl Compounds‚ Enols and Enolates. Some of the most suitable reactions of carbonyl compounds contain carbon hydrogen bonds adjacent to the carbonyl group. Such reactions‚ which can be observed as the strength of much synthetic organic chemistry‚ usually result in the replacement of the hydrogen by some other atom or group‚ as in the H-C-C=O -+ X-C-C=O. Transformation of a carbonyl compound to an enol at a suitable rate typically needs either a basic catalyst or an acidic catalyst and

Part 1. Hydrocarbon Nomenclature From International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) General Form of IUPAC Nomenclature [branching substituent(s)] Root [Suffix] Rules: 1. Identify the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms. This chain determines the parent name (root) of the alkane. The parent suffix for alkanes is‚ not surprisingly‚ -ane. For chains of equal length‚ pick the one with the most substituents. (Note: I number all possibilities going from left to right

A phase transfer catalyst or PTC in chemistry is a catalyst which facilitates the migration of a reactant in a heterogeneous system from one phase into another phase where reaction can take place. Ionic reactants are often soluble in an aqueous phase but insoluble in an organic phase unless the phase transfer catalyst is present. Phase transfer catalysis (also PTC) refers to the acceleration of the reaction by the phase transfer catalyst. Phase transfer catalysts for anion reactants are often

CHEM 2123 and 2125 – Organic Chemistry Lab I and II GUIDELINES FOR WRITING LAB REPORTS INTRODUCTION Writing reports in organic chemistry lab may differ from the way it’s done in general chemistry. One goal of this course is to introduce you to the record keeping methods used in research labs. Such methods are designed to organize experimental data in a format similar to that required for publication in major scientific journals. Here are some important considerations that apply in research settings

experiment called for the conversion of maleic acid into fumaric acid with the addition of a proton using the acid-catalyzed isomerisation‚ vacuum filtration‚ and reflux processes. The second part of the experiment was intended for using the molecular modelling kits as a way to visualize the differences between such isomers. Discussion: Organic compounds and their three-dimensional shapes can be represented through diagrams. Two particular methods of illustrations are the sawhorse representation and

took my first chemistry class I became mesmerized with the field of chemistry. The idea that I could start with one molecule and change it into a completely different compound both fascinated and thrilled me. I was at a predicament‚ on one hand I wanted to study medicine to help people‚ but I was far more interested in and passionate about the chemical processes and reactions. This changed when I took my first organic chemistry class. I want to make a career by applying chemistry to medicine and
