Experimental Organic Chemistry EXPERIMENTAL ORGANIC CHEMISTRY BY JAMES F. NORRIS Professor of Organic Chemistry, Massachusetts Institute of Technology; Author of "The Principles of Organic Chemistry," "A Textbook of Inorganic Chemistry for Colleges," and Joint Author of "Laboratory Exercises in Inorganic Chemistry" SECOND EDITION SECOND IMPRESSION TOTAL ISSUE, 38,000 McGRAW-HILL BOOK COMPANY, INC. NEW YORK: 370 SEVENTH AVENUE LONDON: 6 & 8 BOUVERIE ST., E. C. 4 1924 COPYRIGHT, 1915, 1924, BY THE MCGRAW-HILL BOOK COMPANY, INC. PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA THE MAPLE PRESS COMPANY, YORK, PA. PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION The appearance of the second edition of the author's "Text- book of Organic Chemistry" made it advisable to prepare a revision of this laboratory guide, in order that the references given to the text should refer to the new edition of the latter. Advantage has been taken of the opportunity to give improved directions for a number of experiments and to incorporate new material of importance. Some additions have been made to the chapter on laboratory methods, and directions for a few new preparations have been given. These include the preparation of normal butyl chloride from the alcohol and aqueous hydrochloric acid, of triphenylmethane directly from benzene, carbon tetra- chloride, ether, and aluminium chloride, of an amylene from sec- ondary amyl alcohol, and of a secondary alcohol from pentene-2. The author will be glad to receive suggestions from teachers who use the book with their classes. JAMES F. NORRIS. CAMBRIDGE, MASS. April, 1924. PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION This book is designed primarily to be used as a laboratory guide in connection with courses in organic chemistry in which the student follows in the laboratory the subject as developed in the class-room. An attempt has been made to furnish direc• tions for experiments to illustrate the methods of preparation and the chemical properties of the more important classes of organic compounds. As a consequence, the student following the work as given, comes in contact with many substances of importance which are not handled by one whose laboratory work consists solely in the preparation of a few compounds. For example, directions are given in considerable detail for experiments which illustrate the properties of fatty amines, hydroxy acids, carbohydrates, fats, proteins, etc., subjects which receive scant, if any, attention in many laboratory courses in organic chemistry. Directions for a large number of preparations are also given. These serve to illustrate the more important synthetic methods and the different kinds of laboratory technique with which the student should become acquainted. In connection with the directions for the preparation of typical compounds, experiments are given which illustrate the properties of the compounds made. These experiments include in each case a study of the reactions of the substance which are of particular value in the identification of the characteristic group present. No attempt has been made to introduce novel preparations; the ones given are, in the main, those commonly used. These have been selected on account of their simplicity and the fact that they illustrate the principles to be taught; they are as novel to the student as any that could be devised. Although the older preparations are used, the laboratory details are, in many cases, different from those commonly employed. The changes have been the result of a detailed study of the preparations which, in many cases, resulted in simplification and improvement. A few new preparations are described; these are to illustrate, in vii viii PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION most cases, the properties of compounds that have not been stud• ied commonly in laboratory courses in organic chemistry. A feature of the book is the introduction of directions for the preparation of certain compounds on a very small scale. Stu• dents often acquire the habit of careless work in the laboratory practice in organic chemistry. Preparation-work on the small scale serves to counteract this effect and to develop a technique that is valuable. Such work is often necessary in the identifica• tion of unknown compounds when a small amount only of the substance is available. In many cases a crystalline derivative whose melting-point can be determined, can be prepared in a pure condition from but two or three drops of a substance. Among the examples of work of this kind which are given are the preparation of acetanilide from acetic acid, glyceryl tribenzoate from glycerol, dinitrobenzene from benzene, and dibenzalacetone from acetone. In order to facilitate such work, a section in the first chapter is devoted to a consideration of the technique used in the manipulation of small quantities of substances. The final chapter of the book deals with the methods used to identify organic compounds by a study of their chemical behavior and physical properties. The method is outlined only, since the pedagogical value of the work depends largely upon giving the student opportunity to apply the knowledge he has gained throughout the course in the study of the behavior of the typical classes of organic compounds. It has been the experience of the author for a number of years, that laboratory practice of this kind undertaken at the end of the course, is of great value to the student, on account of the fact that it gives him an opportunity to review, correlate, and apply many of the facts he has learned. The practical application of his knowledge is evident. When a student has been able to identify definitely a number of com• pounds which were unknown to him, he feels that he has gained power in handling problems in organic chemistry. A chapter of the book is devoted to detailed directions for carrying out the simpler operations used in laboratory work in organic chemistry. In order that the student may make use of this information when it is necessary, references are given through• out the book to the paragraph and page where the particular process to be employed is described. It is impossible to repeat PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION ix in the laboratory directions details for these processes, and if the student does not have these details before him he is apt to carry out the operation in a careless manner. It is believed that a definite reference to the place where the process is described may be useful. The book contains directions for more work than can be done in a laboratory course of the usual length. An opportunity is thus given the teacher to select the work that is best adapted to the needs of his students. The method of numbering and letter- ing the experiments makes it possible to assign readily the work to be done by the class. The author has consulted all the well-known texts on labora- tory work in organic chemistry in the preparation of the book. In writing the directions for the preparation of compounds on a small scale, valuable help was obtained from S. P. Mulliken's "The Identification of Pure Organic Compounds." A number of experiments on fats, carbohydrates, and proteins have been adapted, with the permission of the author, from a laboratory manual in descriptive organic chemistry prepared for the use of students of household economics, by Professor Alice F. Blood, of Simmons College. The author wishes to express his thanks for the courtesy shown in granting permission to make use of this material. All the figures in the book were prepared from drawings made by the wife of the author; for this help and for assistance in read- ing the proof he is deeply grateful. The author will be pleased to have called to his attention any mistakes which may be discovered by those who use the book; any suggestions as to improved directions for the experiments will also be gladly received.

Abstract An investigation was conducted to determine the influence of oxygen and various organic mole­ cules on the reduction of the friction of an iron (011) single crystal surface. A comparison was made between aliphatic and aromatic structures, all of which contained six carbon atoms, and among various halogen atoms. Results of the investigation indicate that hexane and benzene give similar friction coefficients over a range of loads except at very light loads. At light loads, the friction decreased with an increase in the load where the halogens fluorine and chlorine are in­ corporated into the benzene molecular structure; however, over the same load range when bro­ mine and iodine were present, the friction was relatively unchanged.

The construction of the C-O and C–N bonds is of significance as it opens avenues for the introduction of ether and amine linkages in organic molecules. Despite significant advancements in this field, the construction of C-O and C–N bonds is still a major challenge for organic chemists, due to the involvement of harsh reaction conditions or the use of expensive catalysts or ligands in many cases. Thus, it is a challenge to develop alternative, milder, cheaper and more reproducible methodologies for the construction of these types of bonds. Herein, we introduce a new efficient ligand free catalytic system for C-O and C-N bond formation reactions.
