THE REMAINDER OF THIS REPORT IS FOR YOUR ACTUAL UNKNOWN, NOT SQUALOR!

Unknown Number: _______ I. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES A. Melting/Boiling point: __________ B. Solubility Characteristics (Circle each that applies): 1. Water + - 2. 1M HCl + - n/a 3. 1M NaOH + - n/a 4. NaHCO3 + - n/a 5. H2SO4 + - n/a Conclusions based upon solubility only: II. SPECTRAL PROPERTIES Attach infrared spectrum of the unknown with this report. Note the presence (or absence) of any spectral bands that helped you to determine the identity of your unknown: III. CLASSIFICATION TESTING For each of the following that apply, indicate whether you obtained a positive or negative result for your unknown. If you did not perform the test, simply circle n/a. A. Chromic Acid test + - n/a B. Ferric Chloride test + - n/a C. Iodoform test + - n/a D. 2,4-DNPH test + - n/a E. Baeyer test + - n/a F. Br2 in CCl4 + - n/a G. Miscellaneous tests not listed above: list name of test, source of the test and result. Comment on the results of the classification tests. What have they told you? IV. DERIVATIZATION For each derivative which you formed, write a chemical reaction showing the starting materials and the products formed. Also list the melting point of the derivative and the melting point found in the table in the text for that derivative. A. Derivative 1 1. Reaction: 2. Melting point: _______ 3. Table value: _______ B. Derivative 2 1. Reaction: 2. Melting point: _______ 3. Table value: _______ V. THE FINALE DRAW YOUR UNKNOWN AND GIVE ITS NAME:
