Reagent

Create a control group by testing the three reagents in distilled water. Fill three tubes one centimeter of the length with distilled water. With a permanent marker, label the test tubes according to which reagent will be used. In order to test for sugars, preheat a beaker that is three-fourths full of tap water and bring the water to a boil. In the first test tube, drop five drops of biuret reagent to test for protein, in the second, drop five drops of iodine to test for

It is a routinely used stain in brain, cornea, liver, and skeletal muscle specimens. PRINCIPLE: One of the most common applications for Schiff’s Reagent is in the Periodic Acid Schiff’s, or PAS, reaction. The purpose of the periodic acid is to oxidize some of the tissue carbohydrates. This produces aldehyde groups that condense with Schiff’s reagent thus, forming a bright red coloration and demonstrating the tissue component

(known as reagents, reactants, or substrates) to another type of substance called the product. As a catalyst, an enzyme can facilitate the same chemical reaction over and over again (Ochs, 1985).

acts as a reagent. Due to the nature of 2-ethyl-1,3-hexanediol we are able to determine if sodium hypochlorite is a selective reagent. 2-ethyl-1,3-hexanediol has 2 alcohol functional groups with one being primary and the other being secondary. A selective reagent is one which oxidizes one functional group although its in the presence of 2 or more. In order to determine when the reaction came to completion, a starch/iodine test was used. The starch/ iodine test indicates if excess reagent, sodium hypochlorite

CONCLUSION Overall, the experiment result concluded that the initial hypothesis stated that pure diphenylmethanol would be synthesize from the Grignard reagent phenylmagenisum bromide when reacted with benzaldehyde would be close to theoretical percent yield of 100% was rejected. The measured actual mass was 0.99 g of diphenylmethanol which was relatively low to theoretical mass of 2.708 g of diphenylmethanol. This further concluded to quite low percentage yield of 36.56% of final product diphenylmethanol

aims to initially produce a Grignard reagent using electrophilic addition. The reaction involves combining bromobenzene with magnesium in an anhydrous diethyl ether environment to form the Grignard reagent. The reaction needs to remain anhydrous to prevent any water presence due to Grignard reagents being very strong Lewis and Bronsted bases, having the ability to remove a proton from any water molecule they encounter. Following the formation of the Grignard reagent, the synthesis of triphenylmethanol

Advantages i. Derivatives of alkylation are very stable ii. Some of these reactions can be done in aqueous solutions iii. Alkylation reagents are widely available iv. They are wither strong basic or acidic in nature. Disadvantages 1. They are only limited to acid hydroxyl groups and amines 2. The reagents used are mostly toxic Alkylating agents and how they act. a. Boron trichloride in methanol or chloroethanol: an acidic hydrogen group undergoes esterification in the presence of boron trichloride

Halides or R-X reacts with certain metals to produce compounds containing C-metal bonds. In the year 1910, a renowned scientist “Victor Grignard” discovered a special class of organometallic compounds/reagents known as a Grignard Reagent. The Grignard reagent is Alkyl magnesium halide (R-MgX). This reagent formation is possible when a haloalkane (in this case ethyl bromide) react with Magnesium in the presence of dry ether. This will result in the formation of R-MgX. C-Mg bond is polar and covalent

Grignard reagent. The product was obtained through a refluxing apparatus for a Grignard reaction, filtered through vacuum filtration, and characterized by infrared spectroscopy. A percent yield of 24.4% resulted and peaks were observed at 3480.50 cm-1, 2970.60 cm-1, 1738.96 cm-1. Introduction: Grignard synthesis involves the preparation and reactivity of Grignard reagents, which are organometallic compounds with a carbon-metal bond, in most cases a carbon-magnesium bond. Grignard reagents can be
