Bromination of Acetanilide Introduction: Bromination of acetanilide to 4-bromoaniline was studied in this experiment. One of the most important mechanism with the reaction of aromatic compounds is the electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions(wade‚2013). The electrophilic aromatic substitution enable scientists to make substituted aromatic compounds. However‚ substitution groups affect the electrophilic substitution mechanism. A nitrogen atom attached to hydrogen is learned to be a powerful

To determine if the reaction had gone to completion‚ a Starch/Iodine test was conducted. A change in the strip to a deep blue color would signal an excess of sodium hypochlorite reagent present. An excess is the reagent symbolizes the end of the reaction because there is no longer any reactant left to consume reagent. After the reaction was deemed completed‚ the product was isolated and purified by ether extraction‚ aqueous extraction and evaporation. To determine how sodium hypochlorite acts as

REPORT PRACTICAL 1 Title: Nitration of Acetanilide Aim : To observe how an Aromatic electrophilic Substitution reaction takes place via the nitration of Acetanilide i.e. how hydrogen on a carbon chain is replaced with a nitro group. Reagents and Chemicals: • Acetanilide (5g) • Glacial acetic acid (5mL) • Concentrated sulphuric acid (10mL &1.5mL) • Concentrated Nitric acid (2.0mL) • Methanol (30-50mL) Modification to experimental procedure: The experimental

Learning Activity 1 Preparation of Acetanilide Abstract Recrystallization is a common method of purifying organic substances through the difference in solubility at different temperature. In this experiment‚ acetanilide was produced by acetylation of aniline with acetic anhydride. The crude acetanilide was dissolved in a solvent in a heating water bath. The solution was cooled slowly in an ice bath as crystals form out. As the compound crystallizes from the solution‚ molecules of other compounds

Objective: The objective of this experiment is to use acid-base extraction techniques to separate a mixture of organic compounds based on acidity and/or basicity. After the three compounds are separated we will recover them into their salt forms and then purify them by recrystallization and identify them by their melting points. Procedure: Extraction of Carboxylic Acid A pre-weighed (0.315g) mixture of Carboxylic acid‚ a phenol‚ and neutral substance was placed into a reaction tube (tube 1)

RECRYSTALLIZATION AND MELTING POINT DETERMINATION OF BENZOIC ACID ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS 1. How does the use of fluted filter paper hasten filtration? Why is it advisable to place a small piece of wire between the funnel and the mouth of the flask during hot filtration? Fluted filter paper is effective in preventing crystal formation in the filter paper. It is also often used in filtering hot saturated solution used during crystallization. One major advantage of a fluted filter is that it increases

Synthesis of p-Nitroacetanilide (electrophilic aromatic substitution) In this experiment‚ we convert acetanilide to p-nitroacetanilide. [pic] The mechanism for the nitration is that of electrophilic aromatic substitution. The nitronium ion is directed to the positions ortho and para to the acetamido (-NHCOCH3) group. This occurs because the resonance electron-releasing effect of that group increases the electron density at those positions‚ helping to stabilize the intermediates that
