Natural Science Forum / Chemistry / Organic Synthesis / March 2006need some infos about p-anisaldehyde!
Hi! I'm an italian student of Biotechnology, currently i'm having a laboratory of biorganic chemistry and i'm preparing a report for this exam. I used p-anisaldehyde to develope my TLC sheet and i must write on my report how this reagent works. I searched in all kind of organic chemistry books both in italian and english but i haven't found anything. I really don't know how to solve this problem. I just need to know how p-anisaldehyde works, what are the reactive groups, why does it is coloured after heating in presence of products Can you help? thanks a lot Well, only God knows what really happends. The basis of the procedure is that the acids within the preparation (ethanolic solution of p-anisaldehyde w/sulfuric and acetic acid) burns the compound and this react with the anisaldehyde to give a colored product. Because of this, the reagent is a very generall agent, reacting with almost every kind of molecule (of course not allways work!!!). O containing and N containing molecules works very well. Take for garanted the reagent isn't functional group directed. I hope I could help you. |
