First half of semester: Syntheses and methods of evaluation Second half: C336 “Unknowns”. C338 Final Project

Prerequisites: C336: passing grade (C or better) in Chem 333, 334; Chem 335 (can be taken concurrently). C338: B or better. Prerequisites will be strictly applied. A student who withdraws from Chem 335 must also withdraw from Chem 336 or Chem 338.

Grading C336 and C338: MiniQuizzes at the end of lab lectures, 2 pts. each C336 and C338: One Midterm Exam (100 points) C336: Final Exam (150 pts.) C338: Special Project Final Report, worth 150 pts. Lab reports: 20 points/ lab report Lab reports V and VI will be combined and will be 30 pts. Unknown reports (C336) will be 30 pts. each. Lab Notebooks will be checked regularly. Your total class grade will be calculated as follows: 40% Exams % (Midterm, plus Mini Quizzes, plus Final Exam or Project, %) 30% Lab reports % 30% Lab preparation, notebook, effort, attendance, participation. Total class grade: >/=90% A; 85 -<90% A-; 80 -<85% B+; 75 -<80% B; 70 -<75% B-; 65 - <70% C+; 60 -<65% C; 55 -<60% C-; 50 -< 55% D+; 45 -<50% D; 40 - <45 D-; <40% F

Exp.1: Solvolysis of tert Butyl Chloride 1.IUPAC name for tert butyl chloride, for the alcohol product? 2.Why does changing the solvent medium affect the rate? 60%water:40%acetone; 70%water:30%acetone; 80%water:20%acetone

Measuring the tenth–life in our reaction What is a possible by-product of our reaction? Does this affect our data? How would a one-third decrease of concentration of RX affect the reaction rate?

Calculations for Exp.1: Solvolysis of tert Butyl Chloride p

Calculations for Exp.1: Solvolysis

Calculations for Exp.1: Solvolysis at t 10%, [RCl] = 0.90 [RCl] o =kt 10% -ln 0.90[RCl] o [RCl] o -ln =kt 10% 0.90= t 10% =k Units of k? How could you calculate k by using the half life?

Arrhenius Equation and Calculation of Ea and A What does E a tell us about the reaction? ln k = ln A -E a /RT Plot ln k vs. 1/T for each solvent mixture ln k 1/T y = b + m x R= cal/K mol
