lab:Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution: Friedel-Crafts Alkylation can I get the answer based on the labWhy does the 1H-NMR spectrum of the product only show “singlets”? Recrystallize the dried product using hot methanol. Add enough methanol to dissolve the product. You do not want to add too much methanol, but if you do, you can always evaporate some of it away. To facilitate your re-crystallization, do the following: Add some methanol (i.e., 10-15 mL) Place the beaker containing solid and methanol onto a heating plate. Turn on the heating plate and continue to heat your beaker until all the solid has dissolved. If the methanol is boiling, and all the solid has not dissolved add more methanol (in 2-mL quantities) until the boiling mixture is free of solid material. When all the solid has dissolved in the boiling methanol, add about 5 mL more methanol. Remove the beaker and contents from the heating plate, and let it cool at room temperature. When your beaker has cooled to room temperature, place the beaker into an ice bucket for an additional 10 min (do not place your beaker in the ice bucket until it has cooled to room temperature). Your sample should be a free-flowing slurry, meaning that there is enough liquid to keep the solid moving around. If you do not produce a lot of crystals, you might try evaporating some of the solvents by heating the mixture to the boiling point of methanol (64 °C). Remove the beaker and let it sit again at room temperature until crystals form. To collect your solid material, you will do a vacuum filtration. When you add your filter paper to the Büchner Funnel, do not wet it with water, you must keep it dry. You can use a little bit of methanol to add to the filter before adding your solid, but do not use water. Wash your beaker with a little methanol, to attempt to add as much of your solid as possible to the funnel. Let the vacuum continue to draw air over your sample, letting it dry by evaporating all the methanol (about 15 min). After this 15-min period of drying your sample, you can use the crystalline material directly in a melt temp.Weigh your solid and determine a yield. Determine the mass of the crude (from Day 1) and the recrystallized product. These amounts will be your yield of both the crude and recrystallized material. Determine the melting point of both the crude and recrystallized products. Acquire the **Procedure**Use a dry and clean 125-mL Erlenmeyer flask for this reaction. Combine each of the following reagents in the reaction vessel: 1.0 g 1,4-dimethoxybenzene, 2.0 mL tert-butyl alcohol (*should be liquid, and stored in warm water*) and 3.0 mL glacial acetic acid. Mix the above reagents until all the solid has dissolved. When only liquid is present, you should place the flask very briefly into an ice bath to cool its contents, but do not let it sit in the ice bath too long as solids may reform. The purpose of this cooling is to prevent a large increase in temperature when the concentrated sulfuric acid is added.Obtain about 4.0 mL of concentrated sulfuric acid and place it in an ice bath. Add the cold sulfuric acid dropwise (about 1 drop per second or slower) to the cooled reaction mixture from above. After the addition of a few drops of sulfuric acid, swirling the mixture to thoroughly mix its contents. You should keep the reaction mixture in the ice bath and swirl it occasionally during the addition of all the sulfuric acid. Remove the flask containing the reaction mixture from the ice bath and set it on the benchtop. Allow the reaction mixture to gradually warm up to room temperature. Take your time, do not rush this step. Continue to swirl the mixture occasionally during the warming up process. Add about 10 g of ice to the reaction mixture (which would be approximately the volume of the reaction mixture; too much ice is not a problem as it just melts). Once the ice has completely melted, add about 50 mL of DI water and mix the contents of the flask to precipitate the reaction product (this organic chemical is not soluble in water, so too much ice and/or water is not a problem).Isolate the solid product by vacuum filtration using a Büchner funnel. Wash the solid chemical collected on the filter with water to remove any water-soluble chemicals (i.e., acid and salt). You should dry your sample in the desiccator (drying oven) until the next lab period. After your sample is completely dry (at the beginning of the next lab period), remove a small amount of the dried crude product for melt point analysis (remove a sample of the crude material at the beginning of the second day).
