Cloth can be waterproofed by coating it with a silicone layer. This is done by exposing the cloth to (CH3)2 SiCl2 vapor. The silicon compound reacts with OH groups on the cloth to form a waterproofing film (density = 1.0 g/cm3) of [(CH3)2SiO]n, where n is a large integer number. The coating is added layer by layer, with each layer of [(CH3)2SiO]n being 0.60 nm thick. Suppose you want to waterproof a piece of cloth that is 5.00 square meters, and you want 290 layers of waterproofing compound on the cloth. What mass of (CH3)2SiCl2 do you need?

In today experiment you will perform the reduction of 4-t-butylcyclohexanone to synthesize a mixture of cis- and trans- 4-t-butylcyclohexanol. Answer the following questions regarding this reaction:

1.The reduction of 4-tert-butylcyclohexanone with sodium borohydride is a stereoselective reaction. What does this mean, in terms of the products that were isolated?

2. Why the reduction is done in methanol and not in water?

3. Why in the reaction a very big excess of NaBH4 will be used?

4.Compare and contrast the (A) reductive abilities of LiAlH4 with those of NaBH4, and, (B) compatibility of the two reducing agents with protic solvents (water, alcohols). Use as reference internet sources and your lecture manual. After the comparison, decide why NaBH4 was used in the reduction of 4-t-butylcyclohexanone (your experiment) rather than LiAlH4.

5.After the reduction the product mixture is quenched with cold dilute HCl. Why do we do that?

6.To isolate the reaction product you will perform an extraction. What solvent will be used for extraction and what layer is on the bottom? Circle the correct response:   Et2O,   H2O,   CH2Cl2, pentane.

7. What is the purpose of adding anhydrous Na2SO4 in step 8 of the procedure, before the filtration of the combined CH2Cl2 extracts?

8. Why do you expect cis- and trans-4-t-butylcyclohexanol to be separable by GC? Do you expect more cis- or trans-4-t-butylcyclohexanol?

9. Is the reaction thermodynamically or kinetically controlled?

10.Calculate the theoretical and actual % yield for the reduction of 50.0 mg 4-t-butylcyclohexanone (MW = 154.3 mg/mmol) with excess NaBH4 to obtain 30.0 mg of product (MW = 156.3 mg/mmol). Show your calculations with the proper units.

Commercial club soda is produced by pressurizing water with 10 atmo- spheres of CO2. Find the value of KH for CO2 on the net or in the library, and calculate how much CO2 is in a 12 fl. oz. glass of club soda. When the CO2 reverts to the gas phase (as it eventually will in your digestive system), figure out how much volume it occupies at physiological conditions (37o C and 1 atm). Then contemplate burping.
