Question

1) Extraction of an aqueous solution with an immiscible organic solvent is a crucial step in most organic synthetic processes. Based on the overall reaction for this experiment, predict the location of ALL the components of the reaction after the water is added and it is transferred to the Sep. funnel. Label as aqueous, organic, or consumed (no longer present) (1 pt) 9-anthraldehyde Trans-9-(2-pheny lethenyl)anthracene Triphenylphosphonium oxide Chloride ion Benzyltriphenyphosphonium Sodium Hydroxide Water Dichloromethane
