    Benzyl bromide, an unknown nucleophile and sodium hydroxide was synthesized to form a benzyl ether product. This product was purified and analyzed to find the unknown in the compound. A condenser and heat reflux was used to prevent reagents from escaping. Then the solid product was vacuum filtered. The product was recrystallized to purify it and the unknown filtrate and nucleophile was determined by taking the melting points and performing TLC. Nucleophilic substitution reactions have a nucleophile

  • The AMOCO Commercial Process

    858 Words  | 2 Pages

    p-toluic acid was solved by the discovery of bromide-controlled air oxidation in 1955 that was led to the implementation of AMOCO process [28-31]. In AMOCO process, the oxidation of para-xylene was conducted using a combination of three ions as a homogeneous catalyst which is cobalt, manganese and bromide ions. Acetic acid and oxygen/air were used as solvent and oxidant, respectively [32]. The common bromide ion sources are hydrobromic acid (HBr) and sodium bromide (NaBr). The oxidation operated at 175-225°C

  • Grignard Reaction Lab Report

    689 Words  | 2 Pages

    INTRODUCTION The purpose of this experiment involved synthesis of diphenylmethanol using phenylmagenisum bromide and benzaldehyde, using the method called Grignard reaction. Grignard reactions are an important method for new carbon-carbon bond formation as well as for the synthesis of alcohols. In Grignard reaction, when an alkyl or aryl halide, R-X where “X” is a halogen atom (i.e. Cl, Br, I) is reacted with organometallic compound such as magnesium, Mg. It forms a product RMgX which is known

  • Essay On Spirometry

    The refined ABCD grading system utilizes respiratory symptoms and exacerbations alone to assign ABCD categories. These groups are now derived only from patient symptoms and their history of exacerbation. The role of spirometry in overall management of COPD has also been updated. Airflow limitation (obstruction on spirometry) is not a component of the ABCD severity system. Spirometry remains important mainly for diagnosis, prognosis, and consideration of therapies, but NOT for severity grading systems

  • 2-Bromohexane Lab Report

    634 Words  | 2 Pages

    for the reflux to work well, rapid stirring must be in effect throughout. The yield of 2-bromohexane is higher when the reaction mixture is stirred. This is because when HBr is alone, it is immiscible in 1-hexene. Stirring with tetrabutyl ammonium bromide causes separation of organic and aqueous layers. When the aqueous layer is removed, we make it more reactive with alkene. Then stirring solution causes more surface area for the HBr and 1-hexene to react with each other, so more product of 2-bromohexane

  • Solubility Essay

    1405 Words  | 3 Pages

    Solubility is the property of a solid, liquid or gaseous chemical solute to dissolve in a solid, liquid or gaseous solvent to form a solution [1]. The solubility of a particular substance is dependent on the physical and chemical properties of both the solute and solvent [1]. The temperature, pressure and pH of the solution also has an effect on the solubility. The extent of the solubility of a certain solute in a particular solvent is measured as saturation, where adding more solute will not increase

    Ishaan Sangwan Experiment 7: Grignard Reaction Discussion In this experiment, a Grignard reaction was performed to create a carbon-carbon bond, between a bromide and carbon dioxide. The product was then protonated to form a carboxylic acid, which was identified by obtaining its melting point, and by performing a titration with NaOH to obtain its molecular weight. In organometallic chemistry, carbon is bound to a metal. Usually, carbons are bound to elements that are more electronegative than carbon

  • Depletion Of The Ozone Layer

    to form chlorine monoxide. Then it is regenerated through the reaction with monatomic oxygen in the second equation. The net result of the two reactions is the depletion of ozone and atomic oxygen.6 Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), halons, and methyl bromide are a few of the ozone depletion substances (ODS) that break down ozone under intense ultraviolet light. The bromine and fluorine in these chemicals act as catalysts, reforming ozone (O3) molecules and monatomic oxygen into molecular oxygen (O2).

  • Epilepsy: A Disorder In A Person's Brain

    523 Words  | 2 Pages

    Epilepsy is a disorder in a person’s brain, which causes them to have recurring seizures. John Hughlings Jackson, who was a British neurologist, is very well known for his research on epilepsy. Hughlings Jackson observed his wife's epileptic seizures. He noted that all of her seizures followed the same pattern. They would start at one of her hands, move to her wrist, then her shoulder, then her face. They would finally affect the leg on the same side of her body, then stop. He went on to describe
