Title: Experiment 28: Nitration of Methyl Benzoate Objective: The students will learn to nitrate methyl benzoate through electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction. They will learn the importance of regiochemistry in chemical reactions. They might experience disubstitution through a high temperature. Reactions: Observation: The crystals started to form when added 2 g of crushed ice. The addition of hot methanol dissociated the crystals. The crystals reappeared when cooled down in

Introduction: A balanced chemical equation has reactants and product that has to represent a formulae. The amount of each element‚ number needs to be the same in either side of the equation. (E.g.‚ HCl(aq)+NaHCO3(s) reacts to produce NaCl(aq)+H2O(I)+CO2(g)‚ this is the equation given for this lab). This help us view the study of Law of Conservation of Mass‚ when either side of equation is equally balanced. The calculation for formula mass helps determine if you need to convert grams to a particular

Extraction and Quantitative Determination of B-Carotene Introduction The study of B-Carotene is important because it is good for vision‚ immunity‚ and overall health. The purpose of this experiment is to extract and find quantitative amount of Beta-carotene from a carrot sample. The raw product(carrots) was extracted using simple distillation. The purity of the product will be characterized using percent yield‚ thin layer chromatography‚ Beer’s Law‚ and UV-vis. Beer’s law is used because in this

Thiamine-Catalyzed Benzoin Condensation I.Conclusion Benzoin was produced by reacting 2 mols of benzaldehyde with the catalyst thiamine to form a new C-C bond. A total of 2.626 grams were recovered. There was a 33% recovery of benzoin. The low percent recovery could be due to the purity of the limiting reactant‚ benzaldehyde. Upon filtration‚ the mother liquid appeared oily making it more likely that the low recovery was due to the solution ‘oiling out.’ This could be avoided in the future

Determination of the mole ratio of a chemical reaction The method of continuous variations is a means of determining the stoichiometric mole ratio of the reactants in a chemical reaction. The stoichiometric ratio‚ as given by the coefficients in the balanced chemical equation‚ represents the ratio at which chemicals must be combined to produce all product with no excess reactant. Since there is no “wasted” reactant‚ the maximum amount of product is made for the given amount of both reactants

Diels-Alder Reaction: Synthesis of cis-Norbornene-5‚ 6-endo-dicarboxylic anhydride Introduction: The Diels-Alder reaction is a [4+2] cycloaddition of a conjugated diene and a dienophile. This type of reaction was named for Otto Diels and Kurt Alder who were the first to investigate this reaction (Weldegirma‚ 2012). The Diels- Alder reaction is one of the most important reactions in all of organic chemistry because of the applicability of it. This reaction can form
