EXPERIMENT I.
Sodium Borohydride Reaction of Acetophenone
Let us illustrate the mechanism of borohydride reduction using acetophenone the
compound you will reduce in Experiment 15.1. The reduction of the carbonyl group
takes place by the nucleophilic attack of BH4- on the carbon. In this reaction, the large
amount of ethanol used as the solvent converts the product alkoxide to the product
alcohol.
EXPERIMENT II.
Synthesis of Aspirin
Experiment 16.3 is the esterification of salicylic acid, which contains a phenol
group, with acetic anhydride. If the esterificaion were attempted with acetic acid, the
yield of the ester would be negligible.
EXPERIMENT III.
Synthesis of Dibenzalacetone
In acidic or basic solution, aldehydes can undergo condensations, reactions in
which molecules combine to yield larger molecules. With aldehydes, this particular
type of condensation reaction is called an aldol condensation, or an aldol addition,
because the product is both an aldehyde and an alcohol.
EXPERIMENT IV.
A Grignard Reaction
(Step 1) In this experiment, the Grignard reagent is prepared by slowly adding a
solution of 1-bromobutane in anhydrous diethyl ether (not solvent ether, which is wet)
to Mg turnings.
(Step 2) The reaction of n-butylmagnesium bromide with acetone is extremely
vigorous. The product is a magnesium alkoxide sometimes forms a crusty precipitate
that must be broken up by swirling the flask so that the unreacted acetone can become
mixed with the Grignard reagent.
EXPERIMENT V.
Qualitative Organic Analysis
(A. DNP Test for Carbonyl Compound) The reaction of an aldehyde or ketone
with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazin yields a precipitate of a 2,4- dinitrophenylhydrazin, or
DNP. Alcohols and phenols do not undergo reaction with this reagent.
(B. Ceric Nitrate Test for Alcohols and Phenols) Alcohols or phenols yield
colored complex ions when treated with ceric ammonium nitrate. Other oxygen
functional groups (aldehyde, ketone, carboxyl, etc.) do not interfere with the complex
formation except as noted in the Limitations.
(C. Schiff Test for Aldehydes) The Schiff test (also called the fuchsin-aldehyde
test) is based upon the reaction of an aldehyde with a colorless form of a rosaniline
dye to yield a violet or purple product. Ketones fail to undergo this reaction.
(D. Tollens Test for Aldehydes) The Tollens test is the treatment of a sample with a
solution containing silver-ammonia complex ions. When an aldehyde group is
oxidized by this reagent, the silver ions are reduced to metallic silver, which forms a
black precipitate and, if the test tube is clean, a silver mirror on the test tube.
(E. Ferric Chloride Test for Phenols) When a phenol is treated with a solution of
ferric chloride, colored complex ions are rapidly formed. Alcohols do not undergo this
reaction; therefore, the test can be used to distinguish phenols from alcohols.
(F. Alcohol Classification Test) The Lucas test is based upon the fact that primary,
secondary, and tertiary alcohols vary in their rates of reaction with a mixture of conc.
