Bromination of trans-stilbene

1. Describe what problems can occur if a reaction is refluxing too fast or slow.
2. Why is this reaction considered “green” chemistry? How is this different from a “non-green” bromination. What are some disadvantages to “green” chemistry?
3. Is this reaction completely “green” chemistry? Explain why or why not. Think about the first part of question #4 to help.

You have completed a reaction and take the melting point of your resulting solid product and the melting point you measured on the melt-temp is 130 – 142°C. The product you were trying to make was chloramphenicol which has a literature melting point of 150 - 151.5°C.

(A) What are two possibilities for why your melting point is different from the literature melting point?

(B) How would you figure out which of your two possibilities actually happened?
