Acetic anhydride

Draw resonance structures showing all the positions at which the positive charge is delocalized on the aromatic ring in the phenonium ion. If a methoxy group (-OCH3) or a nitro group (–NO2) were substituted in the 4-position on the aromatic ring, how would the stability of the phenonium ion change? Compare methoxy substituted, nitro substituted and unsubstituted, and order them by increasing stability. Explain your answer thoroughly. 2) Benzopinacol and benzopinacolone have nearly…

The purpose of these calculations is to identify the limiting reagent and calculate the percent yield of the esterification reaction used to produce aspirin. This reaction was catalyzed by concentrated H2SO4, but since it is not consumed during the reaction, it does not affect the stoichiometric calculations. In order to determine the limiting reagent, the moles of reactants were calculated (Part A). Part B of the calculations illustrates the amount of aspirin produced by each reactant based on…

Concentration of Acetic Acid in Vinegar Nalebra Barnett, AAHCA, BSHA University of Central Oklahoma General Chemistry II Lab March 28, 2017 Dr. Lane Whitesell Lab 12. Concentration of Acetic Acid in Vinegar. This laboratory is to determine the concentration of acetic acid in vinegar using molarity and percent by mass of acetic acid in vinegar. This means, vinegar is a crucial solution of acetic acid (HC2H302) in water. Molarity (in mole/L), or mass percent expressed the…

allow the bottle rocket to go farther. Chemical Reaction Vinegar is an acetic acid. When an acetic acid and baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) are mixed together, three new chemicals are formed, Water (H2O), carbon dioxide (co2), and sodium acetate (C2H3Na02). When one of the three chemical atoms breaks off, it creates the chemical reaction. Vinegar Vinegar is an acetic acid, which is produced by the fermentation of ethanol by acetic acid bacteria (Google.com/vinegar). For the purpose of the…

The goal of this experiment was to use the technique of thin layer chromatography (TLC) to identify the active analgesic ingredient of Advil and monitor the transesterification of methyl salicylate from acetylsalicylic acid. The synthesized methyl salicylate was then purified using acid-base chemistry and analyzed using H NMR spectroscopy. Identification of a proper mobile phase to separate common analgesics used in over-the-counter pain relievers was essential in being able to determine the…

5 drops of thymol blue, malachite and, crystal violet were added to separate test tubes filled with 5mL of unknown #2. The colour change was observed and compared with the tubes with the acetic acid and its chloro- derivatives with the separate indicators. The identity of the unknown acid was recorded. Then, the pH meter was calibrated with 3 standardized buffer solutions at pH 4, pH 7, and pH 10. Then, 25mL of the unknown acid was added…

Despite the practical and informative nature of the Williamson ether synthesis of 2-bromo-4-methoxy-phenoxy benzyl ether. This reaction was not conducted due to an error made in which the initial product was thrown away instead the actual second phase of this synthesis was the Williamson Ether synthesis of 4-methoxy-phenoxy benzyl ether. Figure 4. Williamson Ether Synthesis 4-methoxy-phenoxy benzyl ether ____________________________________¬___ In spite of this outcome there was still much…

Introduction Acetone (dimethyl ketone, 2-propane, CH3COCH3), formulation weight 58,079, isthe simplest and the most important of the ketones. It is a colourless, mobile, flammableliquid with a mildly pungent and somewhat aromatic odour. It is miscible in all proportionswith water and with organic solvents such as ether, methanol, ethyl alcohol, and esters.Acetone is used as a solvent for cellulose acetate and nitrocellulose, as a carrier for acetyleneand as a raw material for the chemical…

(a) (b) (a) (b) 3. 1 Potentiodynamic polarization test of Mg-Zn-RE and Mg-Zn-RE-xCa alloys Potentiodynamic polarization test in Kokubo solution was carried out to evaluate the bio-degradation behavior of Mg-Zn-RE and Mg-Zn-RE-xCa alloys. The results (Fig. 1) revealed that the corrosion potential, Ecorr of Mg-Zn-RE alloy was -1841 mV, which…
