Abstract
A procedure for the preparation and purification of tetrahydro-2-(2-propynyloxy)-2H-pyran is reported for use as an introductory organic laboratory exercise. Synthesis of the target compound illustrates Markownikov Addition and formation of a THP-ether protecting group, produces an acetal functional group, and models a recently developed resin used in combinatorial chemistry. Purification of the target compound via flash column chromatography exposes students to a central technique of modern synthetic methodology. Analysis of the target compound via 1H NMR introduces non-first order coupling (i.e. AB quartet) and long range (i.e. 4-bond) coupling.

Brad Andersh , Kathryn N. Kilby , Meghan E. Turnis and Drew L. MurphyJournal of Chemical Education2008 85 (1), 102In the described experiment, the regiochemical outcome of the addition of "HOBr" to α-methylstyrene is investigated. Although both "classic" qualitative analysis and instrumental techniques are described, the emphasis of this experiment is on the ...
Synthesis and NMR Spectral Analysis of Amine Heterocycles: The Effect of Asymmetry on the 1H and 13C NMR Spectra of N,O-Acetals

Shahrokh Saba , James A. Ciaccio , Jennifer Espinal and Courtney E. AmanJournal of Chemical Education2007 84 (6), 1011We describe an undergraduate organic laboratory experiment in which students prepare two structurally similar heterocyclic amines: one achiral, 3-isopropyloxazolidine, 2, and the other chiral, (±)-3-isopropyl-2-(4-nitrophenyl)oxazolidine, 3. These N,O-...
Discovery-Oriented Approach To Organic Synthesis: Tandem Aldol Condensation-Michael Addition Reactions. Identifying Diastereotopic Hydrogens in an Achiral Molecule by NMR Spectroscopy
Nanette Wachter-Jurcsak and Kendra ReddinJournal of Chemical Education2001 78 (9), 1264Discovery-Oriented Approach To Organic Synthesis: Tandem Aldol Condensation-Michael Addition Reactions. Identifying Diastereotopic Hydrogens in an Achiral Molecule by NMR Spectroscopy
Nanette Wachter-Jurcsak and Kendra ReddinJournal of Chemical Education2001 78 (9), 1264We have found a beautiful example of anisochrony of diastereotopic acyclic methylene hydrogens in a symmetric diketone, synthesized by techniques traditionally performed in an introductory organic laboratory course. Synthesis of the diketone is high-...

Thomas E. Goodwin , Eva M. Hurst and Ashley S. RossJournal of Chemical Education1999 76 (1), 74Palladium-catalyzed reactions, particularly carbon-carbon bond formations, are rapidly becoming a mainstay of organic synthesis in industrial and academic laboratories. Although these important procedures are covered in advanced organic chemistry texts, ...
