Question
What is the percentage yield of the reaction? Dehydration of 2-Methylcyclohexanol
![Experiment 1: Dehydration of 2-Methylcyclohexanol (Datasheet)
Setup:
• placed 1.65 mL of 2-methylcyclohexanol, 0.52 mL of 85 % phosphoric acid, and two drops
of concentrated sulfuric acid in 5 mL conical vial
the fractionation setup was assembled
• 3 mL catch vial was placed in ice-bath (=mixture of water and ice)
water turned on
Running the reaction:
the temperature was slowly raised to 110-120 °C to distill the products that are collected in
the 3 mL conical vial
distillation took about 45 minutes
about 0.7 mL of tanned colored liquid is left
Product isolation:
three microspatulas of solid sodium chloride was added; the organic layer is the top layer
the two layers are separated: first, the bottom layer was removed with Pasteur pipette, then
the organic layer was transferred to a clean, dry vial
Product characterization:
0.95 g of a clear, volatile liquid with a distinctive odor](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F185e23c6-dc6d-40cb-8ddc-039cdf270985%2F3d261b6b-6259-4b97-a2db-61cbf31ee0cf%2Fc5hcmdm_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
