SDSU Fisher Esterification Synthesis of Methyl Benzoate Lab Report

Overview

1. Please show your calculations for obtaining your percent yield. Include the calculations for the theoretical yield as well. Also, if something went wrong during the course of your experiment (i.e you spilled your product, did the work-up wrong, etc.) you can explain about it here.

2. Analyze your NMR spectra  and upload a picture of it on this assignment. In your spectra, you should have the approximate chemical shifts of each peak. You also have to include an explanation matching up the peaks in your NMR spectra to that of the product. Explain why you think you got your product and not just starting material. If you have extra peaks in your NMR that do not match up to any proton peaks in your product, explain where they could have come from.
