spots on the TLC that correspond to the grignard would not show up without dry ice. 0.028 mol H 2 O x 18 g/mol = 0.515g to synthesize the reaction. ● When removing the glassware from the oven, we have to assemble it quickly with the I. product. substance. did you not have to explain your TLC plates? Mechanism: Procedure: By adding all of the bromobenzene at once, a side product will form and less Summers, Vincent. ● We add ice afterwards to manage the temperature and prevent diethyl ether evaporating. rid of the aqueous ions. The Refer to the lab manual, experiment 5, “Experiment 5: Preparation of Benzoic Acid using a For our melting point we would have received around 120 to prove the purity of our °C Introduction: *Repeat this calculation for all Rf’s, =3 ml bromobenzene x 1.495 g/mol x 1 mol The TLC’s show that the final product is pure benzoic acid. magnesium is added to form the grignard which will then react with carbon dioxide to get a. carbonyl group. 2019, sciencing.com/ It also maintains a low temperature which favours the grignard ● The reaction has to boil on its own first because it is an exothermic reaction. in our substance. 0.02857 mols benzoic acid x 122g /mol = 3.49g, % yield = Actual x 100% V= 0.514 ml H 2 O, So, 0.514ml of H 2 O is required to destroy the phenylmagnesium bromide. From there, HCl is added to protonate the reagent and water will be added to get rid of the aqueous ions. The beaker was left alone to sublime and when finished had formed a viscous, brownish, glassy mass. 3ml bromobenzene x 1.5g/mol = 4.5g Please sign in or register to post comments. Theoretical 157g experiment preparation of benzoic acid using grignard reagent : (name) ta: (name) chm 1321 section z01 due date: march 19, 2019 department of chemistry reaction. We yielded 4.78g which anhydrous-diethyl-ether-6025498.html. 1. Grignard”, Dr. Rashmi Venkateswaran, 2019, Exp 5, p. 4-, Rf= 2.8/3. 3.49g Synthesis of Benzoic Acid. ● We use anhydrous diethyl ether because ethers are aprotic and it is removed of all traces create an increase in a product we don’t want and produce little product that we do want = 137%. phenylmagnesium bromide will be produced, so we add it in different portions to get the desired Conclusion: “What Is Anhydrous Diethyl Ether?” Sciencing, 2 Mar. The grignard would eventually destruct, so the water in the air will ruin the reaction. 157 g/mol ● We rinse the beaker with diethyl ether because it’s an organic solvent. of water. The sample was left overnight to dry. Introduction: In the formation of benzoic acid, a grignard reagent is first prepared. =0.02857 mols bromobenzene : 0.02857 mols benzoic acid Formation of the Grignard reagent Note: Use the same balance for all mass measurements in the experiment (± 0.001 g). In the first steps, solid drying tube or else water vapour from the air could condense in our glassware. protonate and ruin our grignard reagent.. 4.5g bromobenzene = 0.028 mol Discussion: V=0.515g x 0.998 g/ml *Density of water= 0.998g/ml 10mL of 6.0M HCl was added slowly while stirring, until the pH fell to 1. ● We add dry ice to the grignard reaction because it yields benzoate. gave us a 137% percent yield, however expected 3.09g, this is because there was too much water ● We have to make sure our glassware does not have any water in it because it can ● We added the the bromobenzene in two portions because adding it all at once would “Experiment 5 Preparation of Benzoic Acid using a Grignard Reagent”, Copyright © 2020 StudeerSnel B.V., Keizersgracht 424, 1016 GC Amsterdam, KVK: 56829787, BTW: NL852321363B01, Upgrade to Premium to read the full document, Share your documents to get free Premium access, 11 WHAT Factors Affect THE Stability OF A Conjugate BASE. From there, HCl is added to protonate the reagent and water will be added to get In the formation of benzoic acid, a grignard reagent is first prepared. 5-10g of dry ice was added to a 250mL beaker, followed by 15mL of the Grignard reagent (phenylmagnesium bromide). In the first steps, solid magnesium is added to form the grignard which will then react with carbon dioxide to get a. carbonyl group.
