Organic reaction

Nucleophilic substitution Nucleophilic substitution reaction is that in which attacking nucleophile replaces a leaving group. Attacking nucleophile: specie with an electron free pair or negative charge and ability to replace already present nucleophile i.e OH- Leaving group: A specie with electron deficiency or positive charge, negative charge i.e Cl- What is SN1 Reaction:- SN1 indicates the unimolecular nucleophilic substitution reactions. Their rate determining step of the mechanism depends…

Purpose: The purpose of this laboratory was to synthesize isopentyl acetate, commonly known as banana oil, in a reaction of methanol and isopentyl alcohol catalyzed by sulfuric acid. Through this Fischer esterification reaction, it was possible to learn about using a Reflux condenser to run a reaction as well as purifying the product through various washes and extractions along with simple distillation. In addition, the product of the experiment was carefully analyzed based upon boiling point,…

benzoic acid from the toluene-benzoic acid mixture, using oxidation-reduction reaction (chemical properties) and difference of solubility (physical properties) –Expt. 1 2. To learn how to recrystallize the solid organic compounds well for getting more purified compounds –Expt. 2 3. To find which differences between raw product and recrystallized product are observed. –Expt. 2 4. To determine melting point range of organic compounds with digital melting point apparatus, splitting into some parts…

diverse amylase and each has different optimal temperatures in which they complete their reaction faster and for this case the percentage used was 1% bacterial amylase and 3% Fungal was used. In order to find the optimal temperature we had to conduct an experiment on this two amylases. By observing the effect temperature has on the amylases we found the optimal temperature. As the temperature increases the reaction the amylase is undergoing increases therefore the different amylases used in the…

of equivalents of glycidol reacted with carbazole. Carbazole reacts with glycidol without catalyst. The process is exothermic and thus needs control of temperature. Reaction of carbazole with glycidol requires excess of glycidol, the best molar ratio is 1:7. When lower excess of glycidol is used, the carbazole precipitates from reaction mixture. This semiproduct obtained from carbazole and…

distilled water used was up 350 mL in order to make sure the reaction was smoothly occur in the 500 mL round bottom…

at 3 distinct locations, the meta, para or ortho locations, where the substitution takes place. Depending upon where the substitution takes place, the electron density changes, resulting in considerably different reactivity differences1. The reaction used methyl benzoate and a mixture of nitric and sulfuric…

teach me something about the way the world worked, whether it was the way ingredients went together and interacted to form the texture of playdough or why adding baking soda to cake batter made it rise. either way, I was inundated with chemical reactions and techniques before I even knew there was a word for it and this inundation created an undeniable curiosity. Before entering high school, I had an undeterrable drive to know why, why something happened, why it worked, why it was important. It…

Chemistry is something that people use in everyday life. All the food we eat has to do with chemistry. Food has organic compounds that change when they are cooked. It is used in our everyday life when because you need chemistry to do everything. Stoichiometry is the relationship between the relative quantities of substances taking part in a reaction or forming a compound. The coefficients in a balanced chemical equation represent moles of reactants and moles of products. The mole ratio of…

overall goal of this experiment was to learn and observe about kinetic and thermodynamic control of different reactions by noticing which product forms faster or slower and possibly which reaction is more stable than the rest of the reactions. Significance: Organic chemists find using kinetic and thermodynamic control useful because they use the concept of the reactions to figure out reactions that are being used at the same time or experiment, that overcome or trump the set of reactants used…
