F334 Models Flashcards
Enaniomers
Enantiomers are isomers whose structures are non superimposable mirror images.
Phenol test
Neutral iron (III) chloride Turns from yellow to purple
Addition of sodium carbonate to carboxylic acid (but not phenol)
Fizzing
Produces CO2
Why is it important to have atom economy?
To reduce waste products
To ensure costs are kept to a minimum/ less energy is used
Colorimetry
Make up standard solutions of known concentrations
Choose a suitable filter - complementary colour
Zero colorimeter with water
Measure absorbance of standard solutions
Plot calibration curve
Measure unknown solutions
Read off concentration from calibration curve
Why can x act as a base?
-NH2
LONE PAIR on N/amine group
Accepts a proton
Cis and trans isomers
There are two different groups on each Carbon of a C=C
These groups CANNOT rotate about the double bond
Less trans isomers
Effect of crystallinity
Less trans linkages will make the chains less linked so they cannot line up and the crystallinity will be reduced
DNA polymerisation reaction type and other product (with Sugar-phosphate)
condensation and water
H bonding between bases
parallel dashed lines from the delta positive hydrogen to the lone pair on the nitrogen with a delta negative charge - interaction at 180’. Two bonds between thymine and adenine. (Three between cytosine and guanine).
Successful outcomes of clinical trials
No harmful side effects: non-toxic
It works better than standard medicines.
DNA finger prints of the innocent
Infringement of personal liberty
Fingerprint not unique; only probability
Techniques used not foolproof
Law might change accessibility
Helps to solve many crimes
Innocent until proven guilty
Future research into disease
Condensation
Polyamide vs polyalkene
Water Absorption
-CONH, -NH, amide group allows nylon (a polyamide) to form H bonds with water molecules
No H bonding in neoprene (a polyalkene), so water molecules will force chains further apart
Chain less crystalline
Decrease in imb strength
Therefore Tg lowered
Solvent properties for recrystallisation
The solvent should dissolve solute at high temperatures
The solvent should dissolve almost no solute at room/lower temperature
Two stereoisomers would be expected to have different activities in the body
They have different shapes The active site has a specific shape One will bind with the active site better than the other Only one will form ESC They form ESC with different enzymes
Active site = reception
Why does phenol reaction with NaOH and suggest why product is soluble in water?
Has phenol/phenolic hydroxyl groups
These groups are acids and neutralised by NaOH/OH-
Ions form
Ions are soluble
Iron (III) and sodium hydroxide ionic equation
Fe3+(aq) + 3OH(aq)- —> Fe(OH)3 (s)
mass spectrum
Species lost
17 m/z value of species lost
What is this species?
17 = 16 + 1
OH
A SPECIES LOST MUST HAVE NO CHARGE
Species which form peak on mass spectrum have what charge?
+
C14H12O3 + 3 OH- —>
C14H12O3 +3OH- —>C14H9(O-)3 +3H2O
Mass peak at 93
C6H5O+
Sodium carbonate
Na2CO3
One mole of alcohol was reacted with one mole of ethanol chloride —>new functional group
Ester
