EXPERIMENT 30:
SYNTHESIS OF TRIPHENYLMETHANOL AND THE TRITYL CARBOCATION

Date of Experiment: November 3, 2023
Date of Report Submission: November 17, 2023
Introduction
In this experiment, the goal is to synthesize triphenylmethanol and, using the product,
synthesize trityl carbocation. This experiment is based on another compound called
triphenylmethane, a synthetic dye. Since there are many types of triphenylmethane dye, one of
the most popular ones is the malachite green. Malachite Green is a triphenylmethane dye that has
two para-dimethylamino groups on two of its three benzene rings. This colour also has two
structures: a carbocation structure and an iminium ion structure. However, once this compound is
reduced the dye doesn’t work anymore. Why? The reason why Malachite Green is green is
because the chromophore, a part of the compound over which electrons can be delocalized, is
responsible for the colour change because the delocalization absorbs light at a certain
wavelength. On the other hand, the reason why the reduced form of Malachite Green doesn’t
make colour is because the cation in Malachite Green becomes saturated and prevents the
delocalization of electrons. Similarly, in this experiment, the goal is to synthesize
triphenylmethanol and its ionic form by synthesizing trityl fluoborite resulting in a carbocation.
Since triphenylmethanol is the reduced form of triphenylmethyl cation, the result could also be
the same.

Alkyl halides undergo nucleophilic substitution and elimination reactions. When the kinetics of the reaction are
measured, if the rate of the reaction is found to be dependent only upon the concentration of the alkyl halide the
reaction is first order. The substitution reaction is thus termed Sy1, and the elimination reaction is termed E1. These
reactions are unimolecular and occur in two steps. The first step is rate-limiting and involves the loss of the leaving
group to form a carbocation. In the second, fast, step the nucleophile adds to the carbocation in the SN1 reaction or
elimination occurs to give an alkene in the E1 reaction. Because the carbocation is planar, the nucleophile can add to
either face and therefore racemization is usually observed although solvent effects can influence this somewhat. E1
elimination follows Zaitsev's rule and typically yields the most substituted alkene as the major product.
Conditions which favor the Sy1/E1 pathway include…
