Organic Qualitative Analysis
Sample Purification / Boiling Point

Organic Lab – Unknowns, Purification, Boiling Point

Several experiments in Chem 315/318 (Org Lab I & II)
involve the identification of an unknown compound

Liquid samples that students receive in Lab may
contain some impurities in addition to the unknown
compound that could produce ambiguous results when
determining the chemical or physical properties of the
compound

Simple Distillation is used to purify the sample by
separating the pure compound that comes over in a
narrow temperature range – corresponding to its
boiling point – from impurities that have boiling points
either lower than or higher than the compound
1/17/2015
16
Organic Qualitative Analysis

Simple Distillation – Background
 Boiling Point
The normal boiling point (also called the atmospheric
boiling point or the atmospheric pressure boiling point)
of a liquid is the temperature at which the vapor
pressure of the liquid is equal to 1 atmosphere (atm), the
atmospheric pressure at sea level
At that temperature, the vapor pressure of the liquid
becomes sufficient to overcome atmospheric pressure
and allow bubbles of vapor to form inside the bulk of the
liquid.
The standard boiling point is now (as of 1982) defined by
IUPAC as the temperature at which boiling occurs under
a pressure of 1 bar
1 bar = 105 Pascals = 0.98692 atmospheres
= 14.5038 psi (pounds per square inch)
= 29.53 in Hg (inches of mercury) = 750.06 mm
1/17/2015
17
Organic Qualitative Analysis

Simple Distillation – Background
Note: The temperature range you obtain for your boiling
point may be inaccurate for three (3) reasons
1. The atmospheric pressure in the lab may not be:
1 bar (0.98692 atm)
2. The thermometers used in the lab may not
reflect the actual temperature
3. The thermal inefficiency of the glassware used for
the boiling point determination may result in a
lower than expected measured value by as much
as 2 – 5oC
You should take this potential temperature differential
into account when you compare your measured results
with the list of possible unknowns in lab manual tables

Simple Distillation – Procedure

Set up Simple Distillation apparatus (previous slide)

Use 25 mL or 50 mL Distillation flask

Place a Corundum or Teflon boiling chip in the flask

Start gentle water flow through condenser

Put a waste receiving container (small beaker) into an ice
water bath – especially for low boiling liquids.

Begin heating sample
Note: The sample may appear to be boiling, but the
actual boiling point is not reached until the
temperature of the boiling liquid and the vapor
surrounding the thermometer bulb reach equilibrium.
At this point the vapor will start to condense in the
condenser

Organic Qualitative Analysis

Simple Distillation - Procedure
 Note the temperature when the distillate begins to drip into
the waste receiving container
 Continue to collect distillate in the waste container until the
temperature begins to level off
 Remove the waster container and begin collecting the
distillate in a small clean Erlenmeyer flask
 Note the temperature when you start to collect the purified
sample
 Continue to collect the sample until the temperature begins
to rise again (it may not change before the all of the sample
has come over)
 Note the temperature just before the temperature begins to
change
 The first and last temperatures recorded in the narrow
boiling range represent the boiling point range of your
sample

Silver Nitrate in Ethanol Test (Sn1 for Halides)
Sn1 (unimolecular nucleophilic substitution) reactions
depend on:
 Weak electron rich Nucleophile (NO3)
 Polar Solvent (Ethanol)
 Compounds equipped with good leaving groups (H2O,
CL, Br, I)
 The test does not distinguish between Chloride,
Bromine, or Iodine
The Halide (leaving group) is replaced with the Nitrate
nucleophile forming an insoluble white Halide precipitate
 The degree of precipitate formation is dependent on
the relative stability of the compound and the resulting
Carbocation that forms in the reaction
Benzyl  Allyl > Tertiary (3o) > Secondary (2o)
> Primary (1o) > Methyl > Vinyl > Aryl (Aromatic)

Add 1 to 2 drops of liquid sample (or 5 drops of
concentrated Ethanoic solution of a solid sample) to 2
mL of 2% Ethanoic Silver Nitrate

Positive test – cloudy to heavy white precipitate
depending on relative stability of Carbocation
1/17/2015


29
Organic Qualitative Analysis
Sodium Iodide in Acetone (Sn2 for Alkyl Halides)
 Sn2 – Bimolecular Nucleophilic Substitution
 Sodium Iodide is soluble in Acetone, but Sodium Chloride
and Sodium Bromide are not soluble
 The Iodide ion is an excellent Nucleophile – A Lewis Base
with a pair of unshared electrons that seeks a positive
part of an atom
 Acetone is a non-polar solvent
 Alkyl Chlorides and Bromides would react with the
Sodium Iodide in an Sn2 reaction in which the Chloride &
Bromide ions are replaced with the Iodine atoms
 The reaction equilibrium is continuously forced to the
right as the NaCl & NaBr precipitate in Acetone
 As the reactivity of the Halide becomes less reactive
(Benzyl and Aromatic) precipitation ceases
1/17/2015
30
Organic Qualitative Analysis
Sodium Iodide in Acetone (Sn2 for Alkyl Halides)

Relative Halide reactivity for an Sn2 reaction is the opposite
of an Sn1 reaction, that is:
Vinyl > Methyl > Primary (1o) > Secondary (2o) >
Tertiary (3o) > Allyl  Benzyl  Aryl (Aromatic)
Note: Aryl (Aromatic) Halides are unreactive for both
Sodium Iodide (Sn2) and Silver Nitrate (Sn1) tests

Primary Alkyl Halides will give an immediate precipitate at
room temperature

Secondary Alkyl Halides will give a cloudy precipitate when
heated to 50oC and then cooled

Tertiary Alkyl Halides will also give a precipitate when
heated to 50oC and then cooled

Allyl, Benzyl, and Aryl Halides, like Chlorobenzene, will not
give a precipitate, even after heating

(NaI) in Acetone solution and shake gently

Positive Test is a white or cloudy white precipitate

If a precipitate forms but disappears with mild shaking, the
instructor may suggest adding additional sample



If no precipitate forms, heat solution in a water bath
(maximum 50oC) for 1 minute and cool solution to room
temperature

Observe results

Record results for both room temperature and at 50oC
1/17/2015
32
Organic Qualitative Analysis
Bromine in Methylene Chloride (Simple Multiple Bonds)

Addition reaction of Bromine (Br2), a red liquid, to a compound
containing a double or triple bond produces a colorless
Dibromide

The double (or triple bond) must be sufficiently electron-rich
to initiate the reaction. Therefore, minimal electron
withdrawing groups (Deactivators), such as Carboxyl Groups
attached to molecule, would hinder the reaction

Unsubstituted Aromatic compounds do not react with the
Bromine reagent

Even if the ring has substituted activating groups (donate
electrons to the ring) the reaction would be a substitution and
not an addition
1/17/2015
33
Organic Qualitative Analysis
Bromine in Methylene Chloride

The Test

Dissolve 50 mg of unknown solid or 4 drops of
unknown liquid sample to 1 mL Methylene Chloride
(dichloromethane) or in 1,2-dimethoxy ethane .in a
test tube

Add 2% Bromine solution (Br2 & Methylene Chloride)
dropwise to the test tube and shake solution

The test is positive for presence of double or triple
bonds if 5 drops of Bromine decolorize the solution

If HBr is evolved, the test is negative indicating a
substitution reaction, instead of an addition reaction,
i.e., there are no double or triple bonds present
1/17/2015
