Four different were gathered from the IR spectroscopy to identify the nitrophenol. The first peak observed was a weak and broad at 3314.75 cm-1, which was corresponded to an alcohol group; therefore this peak must be corresponded to the O-H stretch of the phenol with a literature value that ranges from 3550-3500 cm-1 (Figure 5). The variance between the observed value, and the expected value can be due to the MHz of the IR spectrometer used. The second peak observed was a weak-medium, sharp and…

In society tools are the crux of future advancement and achievement, without which no society can survive. In today’s modern society, literacy is the cornerstone of our society’s toolbox. Societies with high literacy rates are considered to be more progressive and having more potential as there is optimum utilization of human resource which contributes to the development of the entire nation. On the other hand, societies with low literacy rates are less assertive static and flop. To assess the…

2). The United States Department of Education estimates that functional illiteracy affects 24 million Americans and counting (p. 2). Each year, at least a million functionally illiterate students graduate from high schools with meaningless diplomas (p. 2). However, the level of illiteracy required for functional illiteracy varies from culture to culture (p.2). A person living in a rural environment in a developing country may be able…

Background This experiment was performed to determine the identity of an unknown organic liquid using physical constants: physical state, color, and odor, the solubility classification: water soluble or insoluble, the results of characterization tests: Lucas test, 2,4-Dinitrophenylhydrazine test, Bromine in Methylene Chloride test, and Ferric hydroxamate test, and analyses of spectral data: IR spectrum and HNMR . All testing samples were added to testing tubes for observation. Data was…

Temazepam, commonly known as Restoril, is a sleeping pill that is prescribed to patients. This drug is classified under a type of drugs called benozaphines, which are, “a large group of drugs with sedative and anxiety-reducing properties, which have been found valuable for a large number of uses” (UXL Encyclopedia of Drugs and Addictive Substances). This class of drugs is used to reduce anxiety and help with insomnia. Since temazepam is classified as a benzodiazepine, I was curious as to what…

The sequence of the reactions employed for the construction of novel indole–benzimidazole-based 1,2,3-triazole hybrids is demonstrated in Scheme 1. Compound 2 was prepared by treating propargyl bromide with 1H-indole-3-carbaldehyde (1) in presence of potassium carbonate in dry acetone at reflux temperature [26]. Compound 2 was further reacted by heating at reflux temperature with o-phenylenediamine (OPDA) in chloroform for 6 h afforded compound 3. Compound 3 coupled with variously substituted…

Experiment 11: Peptides and Amino Acids The purpose of this experiment was to study the amino acid composition of artificial sweeteners and then observe simple acid and base catalyzed reactions of the amino acid and artificial sweetener aspartame. This was achieved by performing a TLC analysis using ninhydrin as an indicator to observe the composition of the amino acid as well as two of the components that make up aspartame. This is followed by the addition of an acid or base to aliquots of diet…

My plan includes functional group conversions of a benzyl ester Knorr pyrrole using various organic reactions (Figure 3), while using mass spectroscopy (MS), thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and proton nuclear magnetic resonance (HNMR) to track the development of DHP. After the coupling of DHP into the tripyrrole, I plan on using various starting materials to adjust the functional groups to find the most suitable variant of tripyrrole by using NMR…

Benzoylmethylecgonine is an organic compound found in the leaves of Coca plants. This organic molecule is also called methyl(1R,2R,3S,5S)-3-(benzoyloxy)-8-methyl-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-2-carboxylate using the systemic IUPAC system. It has a chemical formula of C17H21NO4 and has a molecular weight of 303.353 g/mol. It is commonly known as Cocaine or Coke. Discovery of Cocaine When the Spanish arrived in South America, they discovered that coca leafs that the aboriginals chewed on gave them…

Object Oriented Programming vs Functional Programming Programming paradigms offer a significant number of advantages over programming with no standard structure. Paradigms over the years have evolved into fleshed out procedures with only a handful of disadvantages, still overwhelmingly insignificant to the advantages. Object Oriented Programming (OOP) & Functional Programming (FP) are two of the more developed paradigms that people use, With significant followers in each. There are quite a few…
