In Organic Chem II from the Aldol Condensation lab (using 3-nitrobenzaldehyde, acetophenone, ethanol, sodium hydroxide, methanol and final product 3-nitrochalcone) please help anser the following answer. Please write clear; many times it's hard to read response on Chegg-thank you. 1. There are two possible products of this aldol condensation. Draw the structure of both. 2. Explain why only one aldol product is formed in this reaction. Comment on both the reactivity of the starting materials as well as your experimental...
What would be the aldol condensation product between 1 equivalent of acetone and 1 equivalent of benzaldehyde in the presence of hydroxide?
We performed a crossed Aldol condensation by mixing 4-methycylohexanone, p-tolualdehyde, ethanol and NaOH. Please give me an overview of the aldol reaction as well as the mechanism and product. Thank you!
what is the theoretical yield of anisalacetophenone and
dibenzalacetone formed? thank you.
The Aldol Condensation Precautions: Acetone, ethanol and acetophenone are flammable; work in a fume hood. Sodium hydroxide is a strong base and can cause severe skin burns and eye damage. Safety goggles are required. Gloves are recommended. Purpose To carry out two Aldol condensation reactions in which no heat is needed to obtain the condensation product. The two reactions differ in the number of enolizable protons at the...
Postlab Assignment for Minilab 34 “Preparation of Aldol Condensation Products” 1. Explain why benzaldehyde is expected to be the most reactive aldehyde among the three aldehydes used in this experiment. (used benzaldehyde, 4-methylbenzaldehyde, and 4-methoxybenzaldehyde) 2. What is the role of aqueous NaOH used in the experiment you carried out? 3. How would you change the procedures in this experiment if you wished to synthesize benzalacetophenone (C6H5CH=CHCOC6H5). Just indicate the two main organic starting materials. 4. Write a mechanism for...
Lab : Aldol Condensation Purpose. In this lab you will conduct the Aldol condensation reaction under solid-state reaction conditions that will involve grinding reactants in the solid phase. You must read ahead and learn about this reaction and the chemical mechanism for the Aldol condensation. There are two possible products which are the initial Aldol or subsequent elimination product. You will need to isolate and purify your reaction product. You will use your melting point, IR, 1H and 13C NMR spectra to...
