Synthesis of 4‐methylcyclohexene via Dehydration of 4‐methylcyclohexanol Heston Allred TA: Christine Woolley Thursday 1:05-4 pm Laboratory Experiment #10 Abstract 4-methylcyclohexanol was synthesized to 4-methylcyclohexene using dehydration. 4-methylcyclohexanol was heated to reflux and the subsequent distillate (4-methylcyclohexe) was collected. It was then purified using sodium chloride to separate products and an anhydrous solid was then added and filtered

22: 4-Methylcyclohexene Abstract: We treated 4-methylcyclohexanol with phosphoric acid‚ and after purification we produced the end product 4-methylcyclohexene. We determined we had a pure product based on the results of the tests with Br2 and KMnO4‚ as well as the IR absorbtion spectrum of the final product. Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to obtain pure 4-methylcyclohexene by reacting 4-methylcyclohexanol and phosphoric acid. Through distillation‚ extraction

the simple distillation method to produce 4-Methylcyclohexene and to gain experience using an IR spectroscopy to characterize the product of the reaction in favor of equilibrium. B. Results and Discussion: C. Experimental: 24 mL of 4-methylcyclohexanol‚ 5mL of phosphoric acid‚ and 1mL of concentrated sulfuric acid was added to a 250 mL round bottom flask and mixed thoroughly with a magnetic stirrer. A simple distillation set up was installed with a 250mL round bottom flask‚ jack‚ stirrer‚

Introduction: The goals in this lab were to have a reaction occur with 4-methylcyclohexanol and an acid catalyst to form our product of 4-methylcyclohexene via an E1 reaction. This reaction is accomplished by removing the –OH group on 4-methylcyclohexanol via dehydration and to have a double bond form via a loss of a hydrogen on a β-Carbon. Many techniques and skills were developed in this lab. Among them were dehydration‚ isolation‚ drying‚ and distillation. We used all of these techniques to

distillation column‚ and 7 mL of the distillate was collected. The organic and aqueous layers were separated and the organic layer was dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate. The product was analyzed using GC. III. Conclusion: In this experiment‚ 2-methylcyclohexanol was mixed with phosphoric acid with heat‚ to produce 3 isomers in one solution. This solution was run through a GC to calculate the product distribution. One isomer was such a rarity that it did not register on the GC. 1-methylcyclohexene accounted

of alcohol after observing our data; hence our experiment was a success. There was no side reactions observed within our experimental calculations. It was very evident that borohydride did in fact reduce our initial mixture to an alcohol (2-methylcyclohexanol). In the beginning of the experiment we spilled some of the reacting solution containing borohydride but we were still able to receive a favorably good result when it came to looking at our final data analysis.

Introduction The objective of this experiment was to carry out an elimination reaction on 2-methylalcohol with an acid to produce alkenes as a product. The product formed is separated through distillation. Because more than one alkene product can result from the reaction‚ Gas Chromatography is used to analyze the composition of the product mixture. IR spectrometry is also carried out to confirm the product. Procedure This experiment was carried out as described in Class Pak. The heat source
