Oxidation Of Cyclohexanol To Cyclohexanone Flashcards
(21 cards)
What are the reactants
The reactants are cyclohexanol sodium hypochlorite and acetic acid
What are the products
The products are cyclohexanone hydrogen chloride water and sodium acetate
Cyclohexanol precaution
Irritation
Cyclohexanone precaution
Flammable
Glacial acetic acid precaution
Flammable
Why RN a OCL and glacial acetic acid used in the preparation of cyclohexanone
They are used because NAOCL is the oxidizing agent and acetic acid is the catalyst
What is the purpose of using NaOCl3
The purpose of using it is to neutralize any remaining acetic acid
What is the common name for NAHC03
The common name is baking soda
What is the purpose of using NAHS03
The purpose is to neutralize any remaining oxidizing agent
What is the common name or NAHS03
The common name is sodium bisulfite
Define salting out
Salting out is the organic compound is much less soluble in a solution with high ionic strength
Define oxidation
Is the increasing number of CO bonds and the decreasing number of CH bonds
Define reduction
Is the decreasing number of CO bonds and increasing the number of CH bonds
What physical property is used to separate cyclohexanone from an unreacted cyclohexanol?
Density and solubility
Is there an HMNR signal for CO bond in cyclohexanone
No there are no signals or the CO bond in cyclohexanone because there are no hydrogen attached to this area
What major pig do you look at for the I R of cyclohexanol
The major peak we look for is 0H due to the cyclohexanol being an alcohol the range of an OH is 3200 to 3600
For talons test what is a positive test
A positive test indicated by silver metal a black or silver precipitation will form
DNPH test, what is a positive test
A positive test is the presence of precipitation
For chronic acid test what is a positive test
A positive test is the formation of a blue green precipitate
What were the results for the comic acid test
The results were all orange to blue green except for 2-methyl-2-butanol which was NR
What were the results for the DNPH test
There was no reaction or propanol to Metal 2 butanol isopropyl alcohol and 2-propanol.
There was precipitate for cyclohexanone acetophenone, acetone, and pentan-2-one.
