Phosphoryl chloride is a hazardous compound to work with. It is an extremely strong acid. Additionally, a chemist can generate a phosphate triester, and phosphate triesters are known as AChEI inhibitors. How does a chemist ensure that, during the synthesis of pNPP, a phosphate triester is not inadvertently synthesized?
-p Nitrophenyl Phosphate (PNPP) is a non-proteinaceous, non-specific substrate used to assay protein, alkaline and acid phosphatases.

Extraction Q1. Why doesn’t the neutral organic compound dissolve in the 1.5 M NaOH solution? Q2. Why is diethyl ether a good choice for the organic solvent in this extraction experiment? Q3. What experimental difficulty would you encounter if you neglected to include the drying step before evaporating the ether solution of the neutral organic compound? Q4. Why are the two organic compounds recrystallized before their melting points are determined? Q5. What IR bands are most useful in distinguishing a...
1) Which reactant, salicylic acid or acetic anhydride, is in
excess? Show your work.
2) If you were to use 3.17 g of starting material, how much
product would you expect? Again, show your work.
3) Why is phosphoric acid added to the reaction?
4) A small amount of water is added at the end of the reaction
to react with the excess acetic anhydride. Show a balanced equation
for that reaction.

Experiment 12: Synthesis of Benzoic Acid pre-lab (4 pts) 1 (2 pts) Refer to the introduction on the general process of hydrolysis of nitriles to carboxylic acids. Starting with benzonitrile (shown below), show how it is converted to benzoic acid under basic conditions. N 2) (2 pts) The reaction for the synthesis of benzoic acid via benzonitrile hydrolysis is shown below: 1) NaOH, HO YOH + NaCl 2) HCI, H,0 Benzonitrile Density = 1.0 g/mL MM = 103.04 g/mol Benzoic...
It's a weak acid strong base titration
Experiment 4: Identification of an unknown acid by titration Page 2 of 15 Background In this experiment, you will use both qualitative and quantitative properties to determine an unknown acid's identity and concentration. To do this analysis, you will perform a titration of your unknown acid sample-specifically a potentiometric titration where you use a pH meter and record pH values during the titration, combined with a visual titration using a color indi- cator...

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....
ANSWE THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS BASED ON THE TEXT ABOVE:
1) The amino acid tyrosine is synthesized from phenylalanine.
Does this make tyrosine an essential amino acid in indivduals with
PKU?
2) In addition to phenylalanine, high levels of what other
compound(s) might show up in the urine of those with PKU?
Why?
THE GENETIC REVOLUTION PKU Phenylketonuria (PKU), the recessively inherited genetic disorder of amino acid metabolism, is regarded as the gold-standard genetic disorder. Its discovery in 1935 laid the...
