Chapter 23, Problem 17P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The reasonable structure of the compound that results by the reaction of phenol with 1,2-epoxypropane in aqueous sodium hydroxide at 15οC is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Phenols contain hydroxyl (OH) functional group attached to an aromatic ring.

Phenol is acidic in nature and in the presence of a strong base such as sodium hydroxide, the formation of phenoxide ion occurs after the abstraction of proton by hydroxide ion. The phenoxide ion acts as a nucleophile.

(a 4 shows scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of extruded actions of packing bed for two capillary columns of different diameters, al 750 (bottom image) and b) 30-μm-i.d. Both columns are packed with the same stationary phase, spherical particles with 1-um diameter. A) When the columns were prepared, the figure shows that the column with the larger diameter has more packing irregularities. Explain this observation. B) Predict what affect this should have on band broadening and discuss your prediction using the van Deemter terms. C) Does this figure support your explanations in application question 33? Explain why or why not and make any changes in your answers in light of this figure. Figure 4 SEM images of sections of packed columns for a) 750 and b) 30-um-i.d. capillary columns.³
