  1. Chapter 66 Natural Products: Synthesis of Camphor from Camphene

  2. Purpose • Please look in the textbook for the reaction mechanism • This experiment represents an example of a “total synthesis” research project

  3. Comments • Follow the macroscale experimental procedure from Chapter 66. • Your product from each step is the starting material for subsequent steps in the synthesis. • Therefore, it’s critically important to be accurate, because loss of the product from any step may result in restarting the lab from camphene. • Check purity of all products by using GC/MS, NMR and IR analysis. • Calculate yields.

  4. Safety • Flammable solvents are used in this experiment; keep away from open flame. • KOH and acetic acid is corrosive, handle with care. • Jones’ reagent is highly corrosive, carcinogenic and teratogenic. Never discard it to the sink. • Gloves and goggles are strictly required.
