  • The Problem the Diols, Such As Ethane-1,2-Diol, Which Are The
    The problem The diols, such as ethane-1,2-diol, which are the products of the reaction with cold dilute potassium manganate(VII), are themselves quite easily oxidised by manganate(VII) ions. That means that the reaction won't stop at this point unless the potassium manganate(VII) solution is very dilute, very cold, and preferably not under acidic conditions. If you are using hot concentrated acidified potassium manganate(VII) solution, what you finally end up with depends on the arrangement of groups around the carbon-carbon double bond. Writing a structural formula to represent any alkene The formula below represents a general alkene. In organic chemistry, the symbol R is used to represent hydrocarbon groups or hydrogen in a formula when you don't want to talk about specific compounds. If you use the symbol more than once in a formula (as here), the various groups are written as R1, R2, etc. In this particular case, the double bond is surrounded by four such groups, and these can be any combination of same or different - so they could be 2 hydrogens, a methyl and an ethyl, or 1 hydrogen and 3 methyls, or 1 hydrogen and 1 methyl and 1 ethyl and 1 propyl, or any other combination you can think of. In other words, this formula represents every possible simple alkene: The first stage of the extended oxidation The acidified potassium manganate(VII) solution oxidises the alkene by breaking the carbon-carbon double bond and replacing it with two carbon-oxygen double bonds. 1 The products are known as carbonyl compounds because they contain the carbonyl group, C=O.

  • Abstract Superacid Catalyzed Reactions
    ABSTRACT SUPERACID CATALYZED REACTIONS: GENERATION OF REACTIVE INTERMEDIATES AND THEIR CHEMISTRY Makafui Gasonoo, Ph.D. Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry Northern Illinois University, 2017 Douglas A. Klumpp, Director This dissertation describes the use of triflic acid as catalyst for generating reactive intermediates and studying their reactivities under varying reaction conditions. The first chapter is an introduction to the types of organic reactions and acids. This chapter also discusses generation and reactivities of superelectrophiles as well. Chapter 2 discusses the synthesis of 3,3-disubstituted-2-oxindoles from the reaction of a series of acetonyl-substituted 3-hydroxy-2-oxindoles with arene in the presence of triflic acid. These reactions are performed under mild conditions and products isolated in decent yields. In chapter 3, the effects of charge migration in a tetra- and pentacationic superelectrophile is studied. These highly reactive intermediates are reacted with benzene at elevated temperatures. In the absence of benzene, cyclization occurs to produce novel N- heterocyclic compounds. Alcohol precursors are also ionized to generate these reactive intermediates and studied using low-temperature NMR. Chapter 4 talks about the effects of charge-charge repulsion on the aromaticity and anti- aromaticity in fluorenyl and dibenzosuberenyl cations respectively. These cations are generated from ionization of the respective biaryl ketones and dibenzosuberenols with superacid. With increasing charge, there is a corresponding increase in the aromaticity or anti-aromaticity of the respective system. Chapter 5 describes the superacid-promoted synthesis of heterocycle-containing 9,9- diarylfluorenes from biaryl ketones. Products are generally isolated in good yields using mild reaction conditions. Some of these compounds are used in the manufacture of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) and other organic-based electronics.

  • General Concepts in Organic Chemistry
    General Organic Chemistry-Part I 1 General Concepts in Organic Chemistry (A) Types of Organic Reactions: There six common types of organic reactions for the purpose of a beginner. (a) Substitution (b) Addition (c) Elimination (d) Oxidation (e) Reduction (f) Molecular Rearrangement Substitution Reactions: One group or atom is substituted by another group or atom. heat/ R H ++ Br R Br HBr 2 light R Br ++ KOH R OH KBr In the first example, H atom has been substituted by Br atom, so that an alkane is converted to alkyl bromide. In the second example, a Br atomm is substituted by OH group, so that an alkyl bromide has been converted to an alcohol. Addition Reactions: A double bond or a triple bond in a molecule gets added up with another molecule(addendum). Hence the unsaturation in the molecule is vanished or reduced. Br Br CH2 CH2 + Br2 CH2 CH2 Cl CH CH + HCl CH2 CH In the first example, an alkene(ethene) adds with a Br2 molecule, each carbon atom joins with one Br atom to give 1,2-dibromoethane. Thus the unsaturation is vanished. In the second example, alkyne(ethyne) adds onto one HCl molecule, one carbon joins with H atom and the other with Cl atom to give ethenyl chloride(vinyl chloride). Thus degree of unsaturation is reduced. Note that other conditions of the reactions are not given here. It is just an introduction. Elimination Reactions: One molecule is eliminated from the organic molecule to increase the degree of unsaturation. A saturated compound gives an alkene and an alkene gives an alkyne.

Introduction: Analytical chemistry is the study of the separation, identification and quantification of the chemical components of natural and artificial materials. Analytical chemistry has applications in forensics, bioanalysis, clinical analysis, environmental analysis and materials analysis. Qualitative analysis is a method of analytical chemistry that deals with the determination of elemental composition of inorganic salts. It is mainly concerned with the detection of ions in an aqueous solution of the salt. For example, golden yellow in flame test shows the presence of sodium. Analytical methods can be separated into classical and instrumental. 1.1 Classical Methods: • Separation are performed by precipitation, solvent extraction or distillation. • Quantitative analysis performed by gravimetric and volumetric methods. • Detection limits are in the ppm range. • Precision can often be excellent. • These methods are often labor intensive. 1.1.1 Classification of Analytical Methods: The main techniques employed in quantitative analysis are based upon (a) The quantitative performance of suitable chemical reactions and either measuring the amount of reagent needed to complete the reaction, or ascertaining the amount of reaction product obtained (b) Appropriate electrical measurements (e.g.
