목표

벤즈알데히드와 아세톤의 교차 알돌 축합으로 디벤잘아세톤을 합성하고, 탄소-탄소 결합 형성을 실증한다.

배경

The aldol condensation is one of the most important carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions in organic chemistry. Dibenzalacetone is formed by the double aldol condensation of benzaldehyde with acetone under basic conditions. The bright yellow product absorbs UV light and was once used in sunscreen formulations.

안전 경고

  • NaOH is corrosive
  • Benzaldehyde is an irritant with a strong almond odor
  • Acetone is flammable
  • Work in a fume hood

실험 절차

1

Dissolve 5 mL benzaldehyde in 20 mL ethanol in the Erlenmeyer flask.

3 분 Fume hood — benzaldehyde is an irritant
2

Add 1.5 mL acetone to the flask and stir.

2 분
3

Slowly add 25 mL of 10% NaOH while stirring. A yellow precipitate should begin forming.

5 분 NaOH is corrosive
4

Stir the mixture at room temperature for 30 minutes.

30 분
5

Cool the flask in an ice bath for 10 minutes to maximize crystallization.

10 분
6

Collect the yellow crystals by vacuum filtration. Wash with cold water.

10 분
7

Dry the product and determine the melting point (pure dibenzalacetone: 110-112°C).

10 분
8

Calculate the percent yield.

5 분

예상 결과

Bright yellow crystals with a melting point of 109-112°C. Typical yield is 60-80%. The product absorbs UV light strongly, which can be confirmed if a UV lamp is available.

정리

Dispose of organic waste in designated containers. Neutralize NaOH waste. Rinse all glassware.
