Experiment 9: Preparation of Unknown Derivatives
Purpose
: Experiment 9 is the third and final part of our unknown analysis. Today we aim to conduct pure organic analysis by preparing and characterize crystalline derivatives. First, we aim to determine which functional groups (from experiments 7 and 8) fit best with IR and functional group test data. Second, we aim to synthesize, isolate, and characterize at least one crystalline derivative from each unknown. Safety
:
Note that many of the derivatives are extremely hazardous and must be handled properly, under the fume hood. Be sure to wear gloves, goggles, lab coat, and appropriate footwear. Carboxylic Acids—Preparation of an Amide

If there is a visible solid, collect using a Hirsch funnel and 10 mm filter. 4.
If a solid is not observed, add air condenser and warm on a hot plate for five minutes. Then cool to room temperature and then transfer to an ice bath. 5.
If solid is goopy, pipet any remaining liquids and leave the solid in the conical vial. 6.

4.
Allow to stir for 10 min. 5.
Use vacuum filtration to obtain crystals, rinsing with ~0.5 mL of dilute HCl (aq) and then ~0.5 mL of water. 6.

Results & Discussion:
This series of experiments (7,8, & 9) allowed us to identify our unknown compound. We started the unknown analysis by determining the solubility of our compound. The solubility results gave us a rough idea of the unknown’s basic physical and chemical properties such as polarity, ionic character, pH, size, and purity. For example, polar functional groups like carboxylic acids, amines, and alcohols are soluble in water (which is also polar), and nonpolar functional groups like aromatic rings and alkyl chains are soluble in hexane (which is also nonpolar) because like dissolves like. Solubility reveals the ionic character of a compound because salts and ionizable acids and bases are soluble in water. It can also reveal the relative size and purity of compound. If an unknown is only partially soluble in a solvent, this could indicate the presence of a larger compound with various functional groups, a mixture, or a compound with low purity. Once we determined the solubility of our
compound in experiment 7, we moved on to gathering a general chemical overview of our unknown in experiment 8. By administering classification tests, we were able to determine the presence of specific functional groups in our unknown. These classification tests were utilized to chemically alter our compound in visible way. For example, positive classification tests would produce a color change, form a precipitate, or trigger gas formation. Once the solubility and functional groups were discovered, we moved on to a completely organic unknown analysis here in experiment 9. Experiment 9 Organic Tests Depending on Functional Groups/Molecules:
The determination of an amide involves two steps. First, we react carboxylic acid with oxylyl chloride in
the presence of DMF, to produce an Acyl Chloride Intermediate. This is then combined with the unknown, and if it is an amide, the two will react to form acetanilide which is a colorless, odorless, transparent crystal.
If the unknown is an alcohol, we can test for phenylurethane derivatives. When Phenyl isocyanate is reacted with an alcohol, urethane is produced which is a white-yellow crystalline.
The presence of aldehydes and ketones can be determined by combining your unknown with 2,4-
dinitrophenylhydrazine. If the unknown contains an aldehyde or ketone, the reaction will produce 2,4-
dinitrophenylhydrazone derivatives which are orange-red crystals.
To analyze primary and secondary amines, you can use benzoic chlorides. The mechanism involved with tertiary amines is identical to secondary amine mechanisms. And likewise, in the end you can produce benzamide. If you use secondary amine, you can produce benzamide with R group whereas if you use primary amine, you can produce benzamide with Hydrogen. Benzamide derivatives are not crystalline, but rather a white solid powder.
Phenol analysis should resemble alcohols, but they are in fact very different because the benzene in phenol changes everything. In the presence of bromine gas, phenyl can easily undergo bromine addition by replacing the H bonded to the aromatic benzene carbons. After bromine addition, the bromine color should disappear and a white needle/prism-like shaped precipitate will form called 2,4,6-tribromophenol.
Note: Characterizing crystals based on odor, color, and shape is not enough. We have so many crystals that are odorless and colorless. Therefore, we need to verify their boiling point and melting point.
