LAB REPORT 6 Lab title:-Extraction by steam distillation Name : Name: -Simranjeet kaur kaur (100721225) Date:-25 March 2019 PURPOSE:- The purpose of this experiment is to isolate eugenol from cloves by using steam distillation technique.extract technique. Extract the distillat e with dichloromethane as well as concentrate it. PROCEDURE: 1) Firstly crush 10 g whole cloves in a mortar and pestle and then transfer it into a 500 ml round bottomed flask with 150 ml of water. Add some boiling chips into it.Then start up the steam distillation process.After process. After completing the distillation process collect the distillate into labelled container for ne xt week. 2) From distillate, extract the clove oil by using extraction.to remove the dichloromethane from clove oil, the simple distillation was done. STRUCTURE OBSERVATION: Weight of vial=9.86g Weight of clove oil and vial=10.62g Weight of clove oil=weight of clove oil and vial weight of vial =10.62g-9.86g
=0.76g OR 760 mg %recovery = (amount of clove oil/amount of crushed cloves) *100 = ( 0.76g/10.0g) *100 = 7.6% DISCUSSION: 1) The distillate from the steam distillation was turbid in the early of distillation because it contained condensed water and it is insoluble with it which results in a turbidity. The amount of clove oil obtained from steam distillation was 0.76g which shows functional group on IR spectrum as O-H at 3500cm -1 ,C-H at 2950cm -1 ,C-H at 3250 cm - 1 ,C=C at 1650cm -1 ,C=C at 1680cm -1 ,C=O at 1730cm -1 . Due to some error found in steam distillaton during experiment , the calculated % recovery was 7.6% . CONCLUTION : - The estimated amount of cloves oil to be 500 to 750 mg whereas the collected amount of clove oil in this experiment is 10 mg more than it should be this was due to some error found in this experiment.
