The Isolation Of Volatile Oils From Cinnamon

The first step in extracting and analyzing the carvone from the spearmint oil was the column chromatography. The result of this was 1.88 grams of carvone product. The percent yield for this was 66.9% which indicates that a majority of the carvone was saved. This value is could have been decreased during the boiling off of the hexane. Some of the carvone product could have been evaporated if the water became too hot.

The purpose of this laboratory experiment was to isolate and characterize clove oil in order to understand how to isolate organic compounds with high boiling points, how to perform and interpret qualitative tests for organic compound functionality, and to continue to learn how to perform and interpret IR spectrometry. Steam distillation was used in order to prevent the organic compound from decomposing at temperatures approaching the compound's boiling point.

I started my essential oil journey around August last year. I had no idea about it at first. All I did day in day out was to research online the pros and cons of essential oils to everyday life. My interest grew deeper and I experimented almost every night, mixing my own potions to use for myself or to give to family members.

I thought I've heard about the company before. Little did I know, I bought an organizer box from Amazon to store my new essential oils. Luckily, I kept the card that came with it with a coupon to redeem from their website. Long

While cinnamon supplementation can be an option for many, it is important to monitor the dose consumed, the duration of use, and what other drugs and herbs an individual is

Cinnamon trees are generally tropical trees but can be grown in all 50 states simply by bringing the trees indoors before temperatures drop below 40 degrees and also providing an abundant amount of light. Several methods of laboratory production exist, but cinnamaldehyde is most sparingly obtained from the steam distillation of the oil of cinnamon bark.

If it is used improperly, it can cause harm to a mother and her unborn baby. For this reason, pregnant women should read the following information on how to use essential oils safely:

Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to synthesize Isoamyl Acetate, the fruity ester that produces a banana fragrance, by a reversible reaction called esterification. The reaction was prepared by the process of refluxing a solution of acetic acid and 3-methyl-1-butonal. The organic layer of solution was processed through a distillation apparatus where an impure fraction and pure fraction was collected. Infrared (IR) spectroscopy data was collected on both fractions and compared to an IR ran on the starting alcohol (3-methly-1-butonal). The actual yield was 15.3 grams less than the theoretical yield producing a percent yield of 34.8 %. The IR data determined the starting alcohol was present in the final product indicating the sample was impure.
