The Effect Of Original Function Of Hbhnl

Objective: The objective of this lab is to observe the synthesis of 1-bromobutane in an SN2 reaction, to see how a primary alky halide reacts with an alcohol.

During the halogenation reactions of 1-butanol, 2-butanol, and 2-methyl-2-propanol, there is a formation of water from the OH atom of the alcohol, and the H atom from the HCl solution. The OH bond of the alcohol is then substituted with the Cl atom. Therefore all of the degrees of alcohol undergo halogenation reactions, and form alkyl halides as products. This is because the functional group of alkyl halides is a carbon-halogen bond. A common halogen is chlorine, as used in this experiment.

The Purpose of this experiment is for the students to learn how to use sodium borohydride to reduce benzil to its secondary alcohol product via reduction reaction. This two-step reaction reduces aldehydes by hydrides to primary alcohols, and ketones to secondary alcohols. In order for the reaction to occur and to better control the stereochemistry and yield of the product, the metal hydride nucleophile of the reducing agents such as LiH, LiAlH4, or NaBH4 must be carefully chosen. Being that LiAlH4 and NaBH4 will not react with isolated carbon-carbon double bonds nor the double bonds from aromatic rings; the chosen compound can be reduce selectively when the nucleophile only react with

The synthesis of acetaminophen involves the attraction of the electrophilic carbonyl group of acetic anhydride to the nucleophilic NH2

These results shown from this experiment led us to conclude that enzymes work best at certain pH rates. For this particular enzyme, pH 7 worked best. When compared to high levels of pH, the lower levels worked better. The wrong level of pH can denature enzymes; therefore finding the right level is essential. The independent variable was the amount of pH, and the dependent being the rate of oxygen. The results are reliable as they are reinforced by the fact that enzymes typically work best at neutral pH

The objective of this laboratory experiment is to study both SN1 and SN2 reactions. The first part of the lab focuses on synthesizing 1-bromobutane from 1-butanol by using an SN2 mechanism. The obtained product will then be analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and refractive index. The second part of the lab concentrates on how different factors influence the rate of SN1 reactions. The factors that will be examined are the leaving group, Br – versus Cl-; the structure of the alkyl group, 3◦ versus 2◦; and the polarity of the solvent, 40 percent 2-propanol versus 60 percent 2-propanol.

Abstract: Using hypochlorous acid to convert secondary alcohol called cyclododecanol to the corresponding ketone which is cyclododecanone by oxidation.

Owing to its large acyl pocket, BChE is capable of accommodating larger substrates such as the four-carbon acyl-group of the BCh, making hydrolysis of BCh or the smaller ACh catalytically efficient (Radic et al., 1993). Furthermore, this principle explains why BChE was capable of effectively hydrolysing benzoylcholine which contains a large acyl group in the form of an aromatic ring (Figure1). When compared to AChE, whose acyl pocket is much smaller; BCh, suxamethonium (which contains a large acyl-quaternary nitrogen) and benzoylcholine are unable to effectively fit

The purpose of this experiment is to examine the reactivities of various alkyl halides under both SN2 and SN1 reaction conditions. The alkyl halides will be examined based on the substrate types and solvent the reaction takes place in.

In this preparative lab, an aldol (trans-p-anisalacetophenone) was produced from the reaction between p-anisaldehyde and acetophenone with the presence sodium hydroxide. The reaction also showed the importance of an enolate and the role it played in the mechanism. Sodium hydroxide acts as a catalyst in this experiment and is chosen because of its basic conditions and pH. The acetophenone carries an alpha hydrogen that has a pKa between 18 and 20. This alpha hydrogen is acidic because of its location near the carbonyl on acetophenone. When the sodium hydroxide is added, it deprotonates the hydrogen and creates an enolate ion. This deprotonation creates a nucleophilic carbon that can attack an electrophilic carbon (like a parent

Introduction: Enzymes are protein catalysts facilitating the conversion of substrates into products (Alexander and Peters, 2011). They go through a whole chemical reaction which starts off with the substrate and then ends up with a product. The only way this reaction can be adjusted or not even work is if they end up going through some sort of affect which only temperature and pH levels can do determining the environment. When enzymes are in an environment that is too acidic or alkaline, their chemical properties, sizes and shapes can become altered (Magher, 2015) Chemical modification of proteins is widely used as a too; to maintain a native conformation, improving stability (Rodriguez-Cabrera, Regalado, and Garcia-Almendarez, 2011) In this experiment, four trials were conducted and recorded every 15 seconds for 5 minutes in order to calculate the optimum levels and IRV.

The nitro group was then reduced using sodium hydroulfite dihydrate, a reducing agent, to form an amino group. This reaction was easily reversible. The product formed was luminol, and in the presence of potassium ferrocyanide, an oxidizing agent, and hydroxide groups from KOH to deprotonate the product, its two amide groups formed two carboxylate groups, releasing NH2 in the process. The energy from this reaction also excited an electron in the HOMO (highest occupied molecular orbital) to the triplet state LUMO (lowest unoccupied molecular orbital). This electron then relaxed into a singlet excited state, before relaxing down to the ground state, releasing a photon in a fluorescence-like chemiluminescence

Chemists, along with bio-chemists, have tried a number of ways to synthesize the ingredient with the end result being either too small of a yield, or a yield was created but done so with a complex route and many issues to overcome (Huang, Wang, Chen, 2014). The reason that it is so difficult is that the researchers are attempting to fully synthesize the ingredient, hypericin, and want to do so with a great enough yield to be productive. Synthesis of hypericin without the ingredient itself has been achieved by using various routes and ending with a 50% yield. However, it was done so with many obstacles - low yield, varying routes, large volumes of solvents, the high cost of reagents and solvents, and difficulty in scaling up the reaction (Huang, Wang, Chen,

Background: Catalysts are substances that increase the rate of a reaction by providing a different mechanism for the reaction to go through in order to lower the activation energy and are unchanged by the end of the reaction. Enzymes, a specific type of catalyst, are proteins that increase the rate of reaction by converting a substrate to a product in biological processes (Burns, 2002). Enzymes are never used up, but are consistently recycled in order to catalyze many reactions in a certain amount of time. Every enzyme has a specific shape due to the sequence of amino acids, which results in the ability of only a specific substrate to bind to it, whilst others are rejected.
