Hedef

Luminol (3-aminoftaloidrazit) sentezlemek ve hidrojen peroksit ile kemilüminesans tepkimesini göstermek.

Arka Plan

Luminol is a chemiluminescent compound used in forensic science to detect trace amounts of blood. It is synthesized by reacting 3-nitrophthalic acid with hydrazine, followed by reduction of the nitro group with sodium dithionite. When oxidized by hydrogen peroxide in the presence of a catalyst, luminol emits blue light.

Güvenlik Uyarıları

  • Hydrazine is toxic and a suspected carcinogen — handle with extreme care in fume hood
  • Sodium dithionite generates SO₂ — use in fume hood
  • NaOH is corrosive
  • Wear nitrile gloves and goggles throughout

Prosedür

1

Dissolve 1 g 3-nitrophthalic acid in 5 mL triethylene glycol in the round-bottom flask. Heat to 100°C.

5 dak Fume hood required
2

Add 3 mL of 10% hydrazine hydrate. Attach the reflux condenser and heat at 130-140°C for 30 minutes.

35 dak Hydrazine is toxic — fume hood essential
3

Cool the mixture. Add 15 mL hot water and 3 mL 10% NaOH.

Beklenen Sonuçlar

A pale yellow solid (luminol). When tested with H₂O₂ and ferricyanide catalyst in a dark room, an intense blue chemiluminescent glow should last for 15-30 seconds. The glow confirms successful synthesis.

Temizlik

Dispose of hydrazine waste in designated hazardous waste container. Neutralize acids and bases. Rinse all glassware thoroughly. Decontaminate work area.
