Question 2 You are the head chemist of a cosmetics company. The company is planning to add a new sunscreen agent to its line of sunscreen lotions based on the compound isoamyl 4-methoxycinnamate. As the head chemist you are required to devise a small scale practical laboratory preparation of isoamyl 4-methoxycinnamate (bp 170 °C) using basic glassware found in the lab. After carefully planning how you would prepare the compound, state: (i) the reactants, any other reagents and reaction conditions for your preparation, (ii) the glassware required to conduct the reaction and (iii) a stepwise procedure for your reaction and purification of the compound clearly indicating quantities of reactants and any other reagents used.

Disulfides are compounds that have S¬ S bonds, like peroxides have O¬ O bonds. Thiols are organic compounds that have the general formula R¬ SH, where R is a generic hydrocarbon. The SH- ion is the sulfur counterpart of hydroxide, OH-. Two thiols can react to make a disulfide, R¬ S¬ S¬ R. If you wanted to convert a disulfide to two thiols, should you add a reducing agent or oxidizing agent to the solution?

Tom, an analytical chemist, bought a bag of decaffeinated coffee from a grocery store. However,Tom suspected that he might have received regular coffee and therefore decided to analyze hiscoffee for caffeine. In the lab, he took 0.5 mL of the brewed coffee and diluted it in water tomake a 100.0 mL solution. He performed four analyses and found the concentrations to be 4.69,3.99, 4.12, and 4.50 mg/L, respectively. (Assume the density of all solutions is 1.000 g/mL,1oz= 28.35 mL).(a) Report the concentration (in mg/L) of caffeine in the brewed coffee using the format asaverage ± standard deviation. (Note this is not the concentration in the diluted solution.)(b) Look up the caffeine content of regular vs. decaffeinated coffee. Do you think that Tom wasgiven the wrong type of coffee?(c) Caffeine intake of 300 mg per day reportedly has no adverse effects in the vast majority ofthe adult population. If Tom drinks 3 cups (8 oz/cup) of this coffee daily, is his intake withinthis known safe…
Phenol, C6H5OH, is an acidic organic compound for which K₂ = 1.3 x 10-10. The structure of phenol is a benzene ring with an -OH replacing a hydrogen atom on one of its six carbon atoms. Because phenol has this -OH group, you might think that the -OH would ionize and make phenol a base. Actually, the O-H bond is very weak and phenol acts as an acid by ionizing the H* ion. What is the pH of a 0.47 M solution of phenol in water? pH=ễ
