Gasoline Gasoline as we know it today comes from crude oil. Crude oil, which is a fossil fuel, is a nonrenewable (once its gone, its gone for good) fuel source. Fossil fuel is comprised of naturally decaying plants and animals which once lived in oceans and seas millions of years ago. Where we find crude oil deposits we also find ancient oceans and seabeds. When extracted from the earth, crude oil may have colors ranging from clear to jet black and resistance to flow or viscosity from water to

C3C Hayden Johnson Chemistry 200 Lt. Col. Lincoln 4/27/16 T1/T2 Air Force Materials Report – Jet Fuel Jet fuel history can be traced back to World War Two where the first jets stated being used. The English and the Americans were the first nations interested in jet fuel in order to power their aircraft during this war and they standards that were set were quickly adapted by others using this uncommon, new fuel to power their aircraft. Jet fuel started as a mixture between regular gasoline and

Chemistry Exam Study Sheet Organic Chemistry • Study of compounds to which carbon is the principal element. • Carbon is special because it has 4 bonds. Functional Groups • Organic substances are organized into organic families. • Organic Families – group of organic compounds with common structural features. o Each family has a recognizable physical property and a specific structural arrangement. o Each combination is referred to as a functional group. o Even

This procedure substituted an alcohol functional group on an alkene with a chlorine, converting 2-methyl-2-butanol into 2-chloro-2-methylbutane. In this reaction, the alcohol group needs to be detached from the molecule for the chlorine to bind; thus the alcohol is called the leaving group. It does not constitute a good leaving group, since if it's departure took place, the resulting OH- would be a strong base. However, if exposed to a sufficiently acidic environment, the alcohol group could be protonated

low increment of 4.0 mol% (comparable to the increment of the blank test), attributable to the autoxidation of cis -cyclooctene by air. This result testi fi es the heterogeneity of the supported catalyst CoO x /Y. 3.5. Epoxidation of various cyclic alkenes Table 4 summarizes the catalytic performance of 2.4% CoO x /Y for the epoxidation of various cyclic ole fi ns with air. Comparatively, the reactivity of four ole fi ns decreases in a sequence of α -pinene (92.1 mol% conversion) N cis -cyclooctene

in the molecule not being superaromatic. Superaromaticity is used to describe an extra stable nature of some aromatic macrocycle compounds. These structure contains a number of aromatic rings. Carbon 60 behaves very much like an electron deficient alkene and readily reacts with high electron density species. Fullerenes are sparingly soluble in aromatic solvents such as toluene and carbon disulfide, but they are insoluble in water. Saturated solutions of carbon 60 have a deep purple color which leaves

3-methlycyclohexene both of the carbons that share the double bond enjoy their own hydrogen. 1-methylcyclohexene should also signal a singlet for the two hydrogens found on the methyl group, where the other compound would not. 1-methylcyclohexene would have one alkene shift where 3-methylcyclohexene would have

compounds are hydrocarbons, consisting of carbon and hydrogen atoms joined together by molecular covalent bonds. Within this category is a subdivision of saturated hydrocarbons with double covalent bonds, specifically identified as alkenes. The presence of a double bond allows alkenes to react in ways similar to that of a monomer. A monomer is a small, singular molecule which, through chemical means, may combine to form a larger molecule (See Fig 1). The resultant larger molecule is a polymer, comprised of

EXPERIMENT 1: REACTIONS OF ENOLATE IONS WITH CARBONYL GROUPS Aims In this experiment we used two techniques for the reactions of enolate ions with carbonyl groups. One technique used was Doebner reaction and the other technique used was Claisen-Schmidt reaction. Therefore the aim of this experiment is to synthesize trans p-methoxycinnamic acid and to synthesize dibenzalacetone via an aldol condensation reaction between acetone and benzaldehyde. The products would be recrystallized using ethanol

In order for SN1 and SN2 reactions to occur, the leaving group must be attached to an alkyne or alkene (alkyl halides) 3. In nucleophilic substitution, there are two events that occur, development of a new σ bond to the nucleophile and the σ bond to the leaving group breaks. The timing of these events determines the type of mechanism2. The main difference
