Assume that you synthesized 3-phenylpropioniltrile in the solvent dimethylformamide. A big problem with this solvent is that it has a high boiling point, and it cannot be easily removed under vacuum. Look at a solvent miscibility table, and propose a biphasic mixture that might be useful to extract your organic product without also extracting residual DMF.
Answer:
According to the following solvent miscibility table, the DMF is inmiscible in apolar solvents like hexane, pentane, heptane and xylene. Then, the biphasic mixture will be made with one of those solvents.
Now, considering the boiling points of these four posibles solvents: hexane (68 ºC), heptane(98.42 ºC), pentane (36.1 ºC) and xylene (144 ºC). the best choice to the binary mixture is the hexane because as extraction solvent it has a ideal boiling point and it is a low-cost solvent. In addittion, the others solvents can be discarded because:
Conclusion: the best sovent o extract the 3-phenylpropioniltrile from DMF is the hexane

hi, please help me with number 7. thank you
EXPERIMENT SEVEN SODIUM BOROHYDRIDE REDUCTION OF ACETOPHENONE HOCH, DISCUSSION The reduction of an aldehyde or ketone with sodium borohydride is straight forward and usually affords a high yield of the alcohol. The usual procedure (and the one employed in this experiment) involves dissolving the borohydride in 95% ethanol and adding the carbonyl compound to this solution. To ensure complete reaction, an excess of sodium borohydride is used. The reaction between sodium...

Page 1 Synthesis using Carbonyl O-Substitution Chemistry Preamble This experiment involves the synthesis of target molecules using a-substitution chemistry. You are assigned two target molecules, one of which is best synthesized by an alkylation approach, while the other is best synthesized by an addition or condensation approach. You must do the following: 1. Perform a retrosynthetic analysis on the two target molecules assigned to you. In each case the organic starting material (what you have to work backwards toward) depends...

Question to answer from the lab: What aspect(s) of the approach taken is/are NOT especially green? What changes might be made to make the overall process greener? The Lab Experiment Summary Polyethylene glycols such as PEG-400 are currently of great interest to organic chemists, since their application as reaction solvents is very intriguing (1). PEG-400 is non-volatile and nonflammable in nature, and also possesses important properties such as recyclability, ease of work-up, thermal stability and economical cost. In addition, the...
