HO HW2. A student ran the Grignard reaction below: CH3MgBr diethyl ether 2-pentanone 2-methyl-2-pentanol HW 3. A second student tries to run the same Grignard reaction as in HW 2 and obtains the following FT-IR spectrum: ) transmittance 000 2000 1500 1000 wavenumber(cm) a. Based solely on the IR data, did the second student's reaction go to completion? In other words, was all of the ketone starting material used up? Yes or No and explain. b. When the second student...
i need help with the postlab questions please 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....
