Concept explainers

Alkanes and Cycloalkanes

Alkanes are saturated organic compounds which are made up of C and H atoms. Alkanes have the general formula of CnH2n+2. Alkane contains sp3 hybridized carbon atoms with four sigmas (σ) bonds & every hydrogen atom is connected with one of the carbon atoms. The size of the alkane could be determined by the number of carbon atoms located in it.

You are assigned one of the unknown compositions below according to your last name. Let’s assume you have a 3 g homogeneous mixture of equal parts compound 1, 2 and 3 that are intimately mixed together (assume the crude material is a solid). Provide a general procedure on how to separate these three components into the purest form possible (no need to provide a purification step) using any of the chemicals commonly available (most of the chemicals used in the manual are considered “common”) in the organic chemistry teaching laboratories and observing the typical limitations with the instruments and techniques (such as difficulties removing solvents (by distillation or rotovap) with boiling points above 110oC). You may need to do some research into the compounds’ solubilities in various organic solvents as well as their physical properties compound 1, compound 2, compound 3; Benzoic acid, 9-fluorenone, Glycine.
You were asked to separate compounds A, B, and C extracted from a plant material through steam distillation. In your experiment, you were able to collect three distillates at different temperatures.
