A Synthesis of Safrole and o-Safrole W.H. Perkin & V.M. Trikojus J. Chem. Soc. 1663 (1927) HTML by Rhodium No direct synthesis of safrole has been recorded‚ the most recent attempt being that of Baker and Robinson (JCS‚ 1925‚ 127‚ 1424)‚ who distilled the product of the action of silver oxide and water upon gamma-piperonylpropyltrimethylammonium iodide‚ but obtained isosafrole‚ the double bond moving into the position of greater stability.

individuals unskilled at chemistry they could result in serious bodily harm. MDMA ("Ecstasy") is a semi-synthetic compound which can be made relatively easily from available precursors. Synthesis instructions exist which can be followed by an amateur with very little knowledge of chemistry. However‚ people with less than 2 years of college chemistry experience would probably not be capable of sucessfully synthesizing MDMA‚ and would either botch it in the best case or kill themselves in the worst

Purpose of this experiment is to synthesis Banana oil by mixture of the isopentyl alcohol and acetic acid . Banana oil smells like fruit mostly it smells like banana. This reasons that this compound uses in different perfume products as well as the gums for the flavor. The reaction that takes place in this experiment is a esterification. In this experiment‚ the carboxyl group of the acetic acid joins with the hydroxyl group of the isopently alcohol‚ catalyzed by the presence of sulfuric acid

Experiment #1: Synthesis of Salicylic Acid From Wintergreen Oil By: Asad Razzaq TA: Date: 18/01/2015 222/Lab Section 8 Introduction Salicylic acid‚ used in production of substances used worldwide such as commonly used analgesic drug aspirin(cite)‚ can be obtained from natural resources such as wintergreen oil or can be synthesized. Through a series of chemical reactions with cheap raw materials beginning with beginning with methyl salicylate and‚ it is a cheaper and more

of canola oil were used as the initial volume for the production of synthesized biodiesel. Through the synthesis process‚ 31.307 grams of canola biodiesel was produced‚ which is a percentage yield of 85.714%. In order to get this percentage yield‚ the following calculations were made: 40.2 mL canola oil × 0.9073 g1 mL=36.5 g × 1 mol376.6 g=0.0416 moles canola oil From the prelab‚ for every 1 mole of oil‚ 3 moles of biodiesel are produced. 0.0416 mol oil × 3 mol biodiesel1 mol oil=0.125 mol biodiesel

aMicroscale Synthesis of Isopentyl Acetate (Banana Oil) Objective: Carried out the microscale synthesis of isopentyl acetate by direct esterification of acetic acid and isopentyl alcohol. This was an acid catalyzed Fischer esterification. Both extraction and distillation were employed to obtain a pure product. IR spectroscopy and gas chromatography were used to determine purity of the final product. Reagents: * Compound: | * MW (g/mol): | * MP (°C): | * BP (°C): | * Density (g/mL):

MDMA (Ecstasy) MDMA (3‚4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine) is a synthetic‚ psychoactive drug that is chemically similar to the stimulant methamphetamine and the hallucinogen mescaline. MDMA produces feelings of increased energy‚ euphoria‚ emotional warmth‚ and distortions in time‚ perception‚ and tactile experiences. The origin of the drug MDMA was patented in 1913 (patent #274.350) by the German chemical company Merck supposedly to be sold as a diet pill (the patent does not mention any intended

It belongs to a larger family of drugs‚ amphetamine-type stimulants‚ popular around the world for similar reasons‚ namely affordability‚ lower perceived harm‚ association with a fashionable lifestyle and avoiding the stigma of non-oral substances. (UNODC‚ 2011) MDMA began its debut in medicine‚ adopted by eager psychotherapists in California

He told me all of my symptoms‚ hallucinogens jaw clenching‚ sweating‚ lack of appetite‚ dilated pupils‚ blurred vision‚ dehydration‚ muscle cramping‚ weakness‚ confusion‚ anxiety‚ and nausea were all effects of the MDMA. But because of how severe the effects were and how long they lasted for me my doctor had said that the dose of MDMA I that I digested must have

My research paper is on a well-known drug called methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDMA) known as Molly‚ many rappers use this drug in the lyrics of their songs‚ many people use this drug‚ maybe even sell this drug! The history of this drug runs long it’s been heard of in many states. Molly was developed by a German pharmaceutical company in 1912‚ it was confirmed as a compound to synthesize medication that supposes to control bleeding‚ not for other uses like getting high and etc. Molly isn’t what most
