Sometimes two alcohol peaks appear in the GC, even
though the experiment began with just one
alcohol. Write a step-by-step reaction mechanism for the appearance
of 1-methylcyclohexanol and 2-
methylcyclohexanol in the GC of a reaction that was started with
only 2-methylcyclohexanol.

Procedure for Virtual Lab 3: Dehydration of an alcohol and GC
analysisDehydration of 2-methylcyclohexanol
1. Observe the equipment and chemicals that will be used for the
reaction.2. The aluminum block is placed on thehot plate and 2-3
boiling chips are added to a conical vial. 3. The vial is placed
into one of the openings on the aluminum block. 4. 1mL of
2-methylcyclohexanol is added to the conical vial. 5. 2mL of 85%
phosphoric acid is added to the conical...
1. Based upon the results obtained in your experiment, formulate a mechanism that will account for all products observed. What rule does the mix follow? 2. One student refluxed the reaction mixture for 20 minutes instead of just distilling over the product as it is formed. The resultant product was approximately 100% 1-methylcyclohexene. Explain why this happened. 3. The GC depicted in Fig. 1 was obtained on analysis of the dehydration of the alcohol below. Interpret the GC data in...

Need help with number 2 and 3 on the postlab section.
Elimination Reactions Background The purpose of this lab is to prepare an alkene by dehydration of an alcohol in the presence of an acid catalyst Elimination reactions often result in the formation of multiple products. In this lab, 2-methylcyclohexanol is dehydrated to form an alkene. The product will be analyzed by GC-MS to determine the ratio of alkene isomers formed. You will need to determine the mechanism of the...
Prelab Report Objectives (2 pts): Describe the central objectives of this experiment. Describe one learning outcome you expect to have gained at the end of this experiment. Procedure and Chemical Table (4 pts): In your Laboratory Notebook, you should create two experimental sections. Each section of the experiment should have a short description of the experiments you will conduct (a synopsis) so that you can record your observations during the experiment. Create a table for each experiment so that you...
Which method could be used to convert alkene 1 to alcohol 2?
Please show the reaction mechanism. Question number 6 is also
needed please.
Part 2 - Word problems (4 pts each) 5. Taxol (compound 3) used in the treatment of several kinds of cancer, especially breast cancer. It was discovered from the bark of the Pacific yew tree. Each yew tree contains only a very small quantity, enough for just one dose for one person, so chemists started to...

Write an equation for the Aldol reaction that takes place for the aldehyde you used for this experiment. Show the exact structures for aldehyde and product (not "general" structures with "R" groups). 1 2 Compare the crude and purified melting points from this lab with the literature melting point of your compound. What do these data say about the purity of your "green chalcone before and after purification? 14 When only a...
