Chemistry 322 Lab Report Part I. Synthesis and Characterization of Aspirin Part II. Extraction of Natural Products Name: Bianca Davis Instructor: Dr. Russell Date Submitted: December 8, 2014 Introduction Aspirin is a substance known as acetylsalicylic acid. It is used mainly as an over the counter drug used to relieve inflammation, pain, and fever. Its natural form is salicylic acid. This synthesis process requires the acetylation of salicylic acid with acetic anhydride. The purpose of this lab is to
TLC Analysis of Analgesic Drugs Author: Monique Amanda Mendez Lab Instructor: Wenmo Sun Organic Chemistry Lab 243A: Section 038 Date Work Performed: 02 September 2015 Discussion: Lab 1a - TLC Analysis of Analgesic Drugs Discuss the relative polarities of the components of the analgesic drugs based on their functional groups The relative polarity of the analgesic drugs depends on their functional groups. Polarity of the drugs depends on several differentiating factors which
Distillation is the process of separating components from a liquid mixture by selective evaporation and condensation, utilizing the different volatility of each substance (Wikipedia, Distillation, 2015). It can result in complete separation or partial separation (which increases the concentration of selected components) (Massachusetts, University of, 2015). The two types that were examined in this lab was simple distillation and fractional distillation. Raoult’s Law also plays an important factor
Chem 253 - Organic Chemistry I Lab 10: Isolation of Identification of the major constituent of clove oil 3/15/2012 Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to isolate the cove oil from ground cloves and determine the identity of the major constituent that is known to have the molecular formula C10H12O2 through IR spectrometry. Theory: Many people search for alternative ways to treat illnesses other than the conventional use of drugs and surgery. These alternative ways include aromatherapy,
of an organic compound? Soluble impurities affect the melting point of a solid in the following manner. a. The presence of an impurity in the molten compound reduces its vapor pressure thus lowering the melting point of the compound. b. Broaden the melting point range. 2. For what tow purpose are melting points routinely used a. To determine the identity of an organic solid. b. To determine the purity of an organic solid. 3. What effects on the measured melting point would you expect in each
Will Jeffries 11/12/11 Period Two Organic Chemistry Extraction and Evaporation. Separating the Components of Panacetin. Pre-Lab: Analgesic drugs are known for reducing pain, while antiseptic drugs reduce symptoms such as fevers and swelling. However, some of these drugs can reduce both illnesses. To obtain a pure compound in these drugs, the scientist needs to separate the desired compound by taking advantage of the different physical and chemical properties. Such as; different boiling points
Aim The objective of this experiment was to separate a mixture of two compounds (ferrocene and acetylferrocene) using adsorption column chromatography. Introduction Adsorption column chromatography is a technique that uses a solid stationary phase which is fixed and a liquid mobile phase that moves slowly through the packed column. This technique uses the property of polarity as the compounds have a greater affinity towards the respective phases (either stationary or mobile) which leads the compounds
Post Lab Report Experiment 3 - Chromatography – Analyzing Analgesics by TLC and Isolation of β–Carotene by Column Chromatography Chemicals 1. Acetaminophen (C8H9NO2) 2. Aspirin (C9H8O4) 3. Caffeine (C8H10N4O2) 4. Ibuprofen (C13hH18O2) Introduction In this experiment, several analgesics were analyzed by Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) and the composition of an unknown tablet was identified. We define chromatography as the separation of two or more compounds or ions by
byproduct solutions to create potentially useful solids (Bauer 45). It was the lab group’s goal to design procedures for creating
Elkassih Separation of the Components of a Mixture Lab Partner: Satan’s pubes. Date Performed: 9.28.2015 Chemistry 1411 Separating the elements of a mixture can be done through decantation, extraction, and sublimation. This experiment starts by practicing the sublimation process by heating the mixture: NaCl, NH_4 Cl, and SiO2. Through sublimation, the mass of NH2Cl can be found. Then by extraction, water, the mass of NaCl can be found; decant the water, extracting the NaCl from the mixture. Finally
