5. Consider the following solvents for potential use in a Grignard reaction. a) Acetone b) Methanol...
2. (3 pts) The use of Grignard reagents requires scrupulously dry aprótic solvents such as diethyl ether or tetrahydrofuran. Please explain why the solvents need to be scrupulously dry. To support your reason, show the reaction that occurs if the solvent is wet.

Grignard Reaction 1. Draw your complete reaction, including the formation of the Grignard reagent and the reaction with your carbonyl compound. Below each reagent, write its molecular weight and density (if a liquid). Also write how much of each material you will use in ml (if liquid), grams, and moles. Also include the molecular weight and melting point of your final product. 2. How many moles of Grignard reagent are you synthesizing? What mass of water could fully react with...

Grignard reagent THE GRIGNARD REAGENT-PREPARATION AND REACTION In this experiment, you will prepare a Grignard reagent, phenyl magnesium bromide, from bromobenzene and magnesium metal. The Grignard reagent will then react with methyl benzoate to form triphenylmethanol. Introduction Grignard reagents, such as organomagnesium halides, were discovered in 1910 by French chemist Victor Grignard. The Grignard reaction is one of the most general methods for carbon- carbon bond formation in all of organic chemistry....

5. Arrange the following solvents in increasing order of reaction rate for Diels-Alder reaction between anthracene and 1,3-dimethylcyclopentene. Draw structure of product with appropriate stereochemistry. 10 points Ethyl acetate diisopropyl ether Ethanol Water Hexane The same order of reactivity would not necessarily result in the highest yield of the product - meaning, the solvent with highest reactivity would not necessarily give you the most amount of product based on procedure employed in the lab. Explain why this is so.
Write a chemical equation to show (a) the main reaction in this experiment, (b) why Vanillin is more soluble in aq. NaOH than plain water, (c) why adding aq. HCI precipitates the product. (d) What would happen if we tried to carry out the reduction in aq. HCl instead of aq. NaOH? 1. 2. How many moles of hydride can be transferred from each mole of NaBHa? 3. Of the reagents used today, which one is both corrosive and flammable?...
