  • Experiment 4
    Experiment Limiting Reactant 5 A limiting reactant is the reagent that is completely consumed during a chemical reaction. Once this reagent is consumed the reaction stops. An excess reagent is the reactant that is left over once the limiting reagent is consumed. The maximum theoretical yield of a chemical reaction is dependent upon the limiting reagent thus the one that produces the least amount of product is the limiting reagent. For example, if a 2.00 g sample of ammonia is mixed with 4.00 g of oxygen in the following reaction, use stoichiometry to determine the limiting reagent. 4NH3 + 5O2 4NO + 6H2O Since the 4.00 g of O2 produced the least amount of product, O2 is the limiting reagent. In this experiment you will be given a mixture of two ionic solids, AgNO3 and K2CrO4, that are both soluble in water. When the mixture is dissolved into water they will react to form an insoluble compound, Ag2CrO4, which can be collected and weighed. The reaction is the following: 2 AgNO3(aq) + K2CrO4(aq) Ag2CrO4(s) + 2 KNO3(aq) Colorless Yellow Red colorless Precipitate Precipitate is the term used for an insoluble solid which is produced by mixing two solutions. Often the solid particles are so fine that they will pass right through the pores of a filter. Heating the solution for a while causes the particles to clump together, a process called digesting. The precipitate coagulates upon cooling and eventually settles to the bottom of a solution container. The clear liquid above the precipitate is called the supernatant.

  • Review of Calculations for Organic Reactions (Assignment #1B)
    Review of Calculations for Organic Reactions (Assignment #1b) In your experiments the quantities of many reactants are given in mass or volume, though chemicals react in mole ratios, because it is not possible to measure a quantity in moles easily. You will have to convert mass or volume (mass = volume x density) to moles before beginning an experiment. You will also have to recognize stoichiometric relationships between reactants and products, which is based on mole ratio, in order to be able to calculate the theoretical yield of product you expect to isolate. You will apply the knowledge from this session to complete the theoretical yield calculation in your prelab reports and postlab reports. In this lab you are expected to be able to differentiate between a limiting reagent and excess reagents, solvents and catalysts which are crucial for the reaction to occur and go to completion. A limiting reagent is a reactant that has the lowest number of moles of all reactants in the chemical reaction and once it is completely consumed the reaction terminates. An excess reagent is a reactant that has a higher number of moles and therefore is not used up when a reaction goes to completion. Solvents and catalysts are not involved in the determination of limiting reagent. An example of calculations that you will be expected to perform is shown using the reaction of phenol with nitric acid. Preparation of picric acid requires the nitration of phenol. Given 5.00 grams of phenol and 15.0 mL concentrated nitric acid (15.9 M), one can determine the MAXIMUM theoretical amount of picric acid formed.

Learning Outcomes After studying this module, you shall be able to Know about protecting groups. Study the characteristics of protecting groups. Understand the functional group protection. Know the protection of important functional groups. 2. Introduction Protection and deprotection is an important part of organic synthesis. During the course of synthesis, we many times desire to perform reaction at only one of the two functional groups in any single organic molecules. For example, in an organic compound possessing two functional groups like ester and ketone, we have to perform reaction at only ester group, them the keto group needs to be protected. If we want to reduce the ester group, then keto group will also get reduced. To avoid this type of complications, protection and deprotection of functional groups are necessary. 3. Protecting groups for carbonyl compounds The protecting groups allow the masking of a particular functional group where a specified reaction is not to be performed. The protection is required as it interferes with another reaction.

    1 1 Photoremovable Protecting Groups Used for the Caging of Biomolecules 1.1 2-Nitrobenzyl and 7-Nitroindoline Derivatives John E.T. Corrie 1.1.1 Introduction 1.1.1.1 Preamble and Scope of the Review This chapter covers developments with 2-nitrobenzyl (and substituted variants) and 7-nitroindoline caging groups over the decade from 1993, when the author last reviewed the topic [1]. Other reviews covered parts of the field at a similar date [2, 3], and more recent coverage is also available [4–6]. This chapter is not an exhaustive review of every instance of the subject cages, and its principal focus is on the chemistry of synthesis and photocleavage. Applications of indi- vidual compounds are only briefly discussed, usually when needed to put the work into context. The balance between the two cage types is heavily slanted to- ward the 2-nitrobenzyls, since work with 7-nitroindoline cages dates essentially from 1999 (see Section 1.1.3.2), while the 2-nitrobenzyl type has been in use for 25 years, from the introduction of caged ATP 1 (Scheme 1.1.1) by Kaplan and co-workers [7] in 1978.
