Question

Is Borneol, Camphor, sodium hypochlorite, sodium bicarbonate, glacial acetic acid, acetone, Dichloromethane, and Anhydrous sodium sulfate soluble in water. Is Borneol, Camphor,

sodium hypochlorite, sodium bicarbonate, glacial acetic acid, acetone, Dichloromethane, and Anhydrous sodium sulfate soluble in acetone or acetic acid (or any reagent listed in the list)

thank you

Answer 1

Is Borneol, Camphor, sodium hypochlorite, sodium bicarbonate, glacial acetic acid, acetone, Dichloromethane, and Anhydrous sodium sulfate soluble in acetone or acetic acid because

1) Borneol is a bicyclic organic compound and a terpene derivative. The hydroxyl group in this compound is placed in an endo position. There are two different enantiomers of borneol. It is slightly soluble in water but soluble in chloroform, acetone, ethanol, ether, benzene toulene etc..

2) Camphor is a colorless or white colored crystalline powder with a strong mothball-like odor. About the same density as water. Emits flammable vapors above 150°F. Used to make moth proofings, pharmaceuticals, and flavorings.   Camphor oil is a colorless liquid with a characteristic odor. Flash point 125°F. Insoluble in waterand generally less dense than water. - Camphor is insoluble in water however it is soluble in alcohol and kerosene.
