QUALITATIVE TESTS FOR ELEMENTS IN ORGANIC COMPOUNDS
Carbon and hydrogen are the predominant elements found in organic compounds.
Next common elements are: oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, phosphorus, halogens chlorine, bromine, and iodine.
Least common elements include: arsenic, antimony, mercury, and other metals.
A. Test for Carbon and Hydrogen

The presence of carbon is indicated by the formation of white precipitate.
The presence of hydrogen is indicated by the formation of droplets of water in the cool end of the tube.
Copper (II) oxide acts as a catalyst.
B. Test for Nitrogen
Name of test: Soda-Lime Test Test compound: Urea
Soda-lime: NaOH-CaO (2:1 solid mixture)
Nitrogen is usually detected by the formation of Prussian blue after the sodium fusion.
CO(NH2)2 + heat NH3 + CO2 CO2 + Ca(OH)2 CaCO3 + H2O
When heated with soda lime, urea decomposes and the nitrogen in the form of amino nitrogen (-NH2) will liberate ammonia gas.
Red litmus paper changes to blue.
C. Test for Halogen
Name of test: Beilstein Test Test compound: Chloroform (CHCl3)
An organic halogen compound imparts a green color flame when burned upon the surface of a copper wire.
The copper oxide formed from the copper wire reacts with the halogens to form the cuprous halide, which burns with a green flame.
Chlorine is the compound responsible for turning the flame green.
Name of test: Silver Nitrate Test Test compound: Monochloroacetic acid
Formation of insoluble silver halide upon treatment with silver nitrate in the presence of dilute nitric acid.
Nitric acid is necessary to remove cyanide and sulfide ions, otherwise, they form precipitates silver cyanide is white and silver sulfide is black that interfere with the detection of halogens.
Silver chloride white precipitate.
D. Test for Oxygen
Name of test: Ferrox Test Test compounds: Acetone, ethyl alcohol, gasoline, benzene
Ferrox paper is prepared by soaking filter paper in methanol containing equal amounts of ferric chloride and ammonium thiocynate.
In the presence of oxygen, a deep red color is distributed between the filter paper and the test compound.
The test showed positive results for acetone and ethyl alcohol.
E. Test for Sulfur
Name of test: Lead Acetate Test Test compounds: Albumin
The presence of sulfur is detected by the production of brownish-black lead sulfide when albumin is treated with lead acetate in the presence of acetic acid.
Acetic acid prevents the formation of other insoluble lead salts.
The production of brownish-black precipitate is due the presence of cysteine the amino acid part of albumin.

QUALITATIVE TESTS FOR ELEMENTS IN ORGANIC COMPOUNDS
Recrystallization is a highly effective method for the purification of organic substances that exists already as crystals.
Processes Involved in Recrystallization
1. Dissolving the material to form a saturated solution in a suitable solvent at an elevated temperature.
Properties of a Desirable Solvent
a. Dissolves the solute easily at an elevated temperature, but only sparingly at a lower temperature.
b. Gives no chemical reaction with the solute.
c. Sufficiently volatile so that it may be removed easily from the purified crystals.
2. Filtering while hot to remove any suspended insoluble particles.
3. Letting crystallization process
Stages of Recrystallization
1. Removal of impurities, which may retard or inhibit crystal formation.
Samples that contain colored impurities maybe treated with decolorizing carbon to give rise to colorless solution.
Impurities are adsorbed by the active surface of the decolorizing carbon.
Animal charcoal is less effective at high than at low temperature.
The reason for operating at high temperature is to keep the substances from being crystallized in solution.
2. Nucleus formation
Spontaneous nucleus formation is caused by the orientation and aggregation of sufficient number of molecules, which may give rise to a crystal nucleus.
Methods of Inducing Crystal Formation
1. Seeding the process of adding a small crystal of pure material to induce the crystallization process.
2. Scratching the sides or bottom of a container with a glass rod provides sharp edges upon which crystal growth may occur.
3. Encouragement of growth of crystals to visible form.
Growth of crystals maybe encouraged by stirring or agitation, which results in distribution of the nuclei throughout the solution.
Crystal growth in supersaturated solutions may be inhibited as a result of restricted motion of the molecules.

SUBLIMATION
Sublimation the direct conversion of a substance from solid to gas without passing through the liquid state.
It can be applied when the components of a solid mixture differ appreciably in their vapor pressures.
As a separation process, it involves gentle heating of the mixture in a confined container until the component with high vapor pressure changes into vapor phase, while the component with the lower vapor pressure is left in the container.
As a purification process, it also depends on the difference of volatility. Less volatile or non-volatile impurities remain as residue while the sublimate is being formed.
Sublimate the crystals, deposit, or material obtained when a substance is sublimated.

Residue the solid particles that remained on the dish.

DISTILLATION
Distillation is usually employed for the purification of liquid organic substances.
It involves evaporation and condensation.
Evaporation the conversion of liquid to vapor state with the aid of heat
Condensation the process in which vapor turns to liquid by cooling.
Distillate the liquid that passed through the distilling flask.
It requires a distillation flask fitted with a thermometer and a water-cooled condenser.
Boiling chips are also used to prevent bumping by producing a constant steam of bubbles which keeps the liquid in motion.
Boiling point is one of the most important criteria of purity, as it is constant in every pure organic substance at a definite pressure.
Distillation could be used to convert muddy water to potable water.
Solid particles should be allowed to settle and then decanted. Then, the water should be heated to boil in low to moderate fire. It should be below the boiling point of water. This would rid the water of impurities.
The use of distillation is limited to a certain extent because some organic compounds decompose when an attempt is made to distill them at normal atmospheric pressure.
Common Types of Distillation
1. Simple Distillation used to separate a volatile liquid from a non-volatile solute.
a large temperature difference (more than 20) between the boiling points of the component is necessary to obtain efficient separation.
the component which is more volatile will distill over first, in almost pure form at a definite constant temperature, the second component will distill over when the boiling point again remains constant for a long period of time.
2. Fractional Distillation the process of collecting separate fractions according to arbitrary boiling point ranges during the distillation of a mixture of substances.
It is performed readily by means of a special fractioning column.
It cannot be used if the components of a mixture have boiling points very close together because some substances form a constant boiling mixture, also known as azeotropic mixture.
Azeotropic mixture a mixture of liquids of certain definite composition that distills at constant temperature without change in composition.

EXTRACTION OF CHLOROPHYLL
Extraction, by the use of solvents, is a frequently used method of withdrawing or substance from a mixture.
It is usually performed using two immiscible solvents. The mixture is first dissolved in one of the liquids and then shaken with the other to distribute the components.
Aside from extraction, it also involves decantation and filtration.
Decantation the process of separating solid-liquid components of mixtures by gently pouring out the liquid so as not to disturb the solids that readily settle at the bottom of the container.
Filtration the process of separating the solid from the liquid by using a porous filter.
Residue the solid particles that remained on the filtering medium.
Filtrate the liquid that passed through the filtering medium.
Water is usually one of the solvents used in the extraction process.
The other liquid is usually a non-polar organic liquid.
Diethyl ether used extensively as an extracting solvent.
organic solvent
high solvent power for hydrocarbons and for oxygen-containing compounds.
Highly volatile. It boils at 34.60C
Fire hazard
Ether slightly soluble in water
Its efficiency can be improved by the addition of a small amount of ionizable salt, such as NaCl.
The increase polar property of the water solution will cause a decrease in the solubility of the organic solute.
Salting-out effect the reduced solubility in water in the presence of an electrolyte.

CHROMATOGRAPHY
Chromatography - the process of separating the substances in a complex mixture by their different affinities to the adsorbent.
It is one of the most useful methods of separating the components of minute amount of mixtures.
It used for analyzing mixtures of colored chemicals.
It was invented by a Russian botanist, Mikhail Semyonovich Tsvet, in 1901, while researching on plant pigments.
This technique involves separation of constituent elements of the mixture.
Chromatography is derived from the Greek words, chroma meaning color, and graphein meaning to write. Thus, the word chromatography literally means color writing.
It has two phases:
Stationary Phase refers to the column packing material and is either solid or liquid.
- It is usually a piece of high quality filter paper.
Mobile Phase represents a mobile phase of liquid or gas.
- The mobile phase is a developing solution that travels up the stationary phase, carrying the samples with it.
Components of the sample will separate readily according to how strongly they adsorb on the stationary phase versus how readily they dissolve in the mobile phase.
Different Classification of Chromatographic Methods
1. Adsorption Chromatography (liquid-solid chromatography) utilizes a mobile liquid or gaseous phase that is adsorbed onto the surface of a stationary solid phase. The equilibration between the mobile and stationary phase accounts for the separation of different solutes.
2. Partition Chromatography (liquid-liquid chromatography) uses a thin film formed on the surface of a solid support by a liquid stationary phase. Solute equilibrates between the mobile phase and the stationary liquid.
3. Ion Exchange Chromatography resin (the stationary solid phase) is used to covalently attach anions or cations onto it. Solute ions of the opposite charge in the mobile liquid phase are attracted to the resin by electrostatic forces.
4. Molecular Exclusion Chromatography (gel permeation chromatography) liquid or gaseous phase passes through a porous gel which separates the molecules according to its size. The pores are normally small and exclude the larger solute molecules, but allow smaller molecules to enter the gel, causing them to flow through a larger volume. This causes the larger molecules to pass through the column at a faster rate than the smaller ones.
Thin Layer Chromatography it is usually used as an analytical technique rather than a preparative method.
The stationary phase used is an adsorbent in the form of a thin layer of an inert solid on a supporting material, usually a think sheet of metal or plastic.
The mobile phase is the solvent system used to separate the components of the mixture. Hexane and/or ethyl acetate is commonly used.
Paper Chromatography a method used for testing the purity of compounds and identifying substances.
Technique:
1. Introduce a small spot of the sample on the filter paper.
2. Put the filter paper into a container that has the mobile phase. Make sure the plate touches the mobile phase.
3. The solvent moves up the plate due to capillary action and carries the sample upwards.
4. Remove the filter paper and allow it to dry
5. Spray it with ninhydrin to make the spots more visible.
Ruhemanns Purple - a purple coloration produced by ninhydrin in the presence of an amino acid.
