Since they have different boiling points ( that differ by more than 50 degrees C) you can use fractional distillation ( or simple distillation) where you boil one compound out ( leting the vapors condense into a certain container and then collect the condensed vapors of the second compound (fluornene in this case) ... note: that the first vapors are [mostly] comming from the compound with a lower boiling point.

Why does fluorenone travel in methylene chloride?

Presumably you are talking about in a chromatography column with alumina in it. The fluorenone is polar and subsequently creates a bond with the polar alumina. However, as Chlorine is more electronegative then the oxygens on alumina, the fluorenone wants to hang out and be friends with the methylene chloride even more than alumina, so the fluorenone and the methylene chloride hold hands and take a romantic walk down the column into your solution.


Why doesn't Anisole form peroxide easily?

anisole does not form peroxides easily as the oxygen atom is strongly bonded to the benzene ring .


What is an anisole?

An anisole is a type of aromatic compound that has a methoxy group (-OCH3) attached to a benzene ring. It is often used as a solvent in various chemical reactions and as a starting material for the synthesis of other compounds. Anisole has a sweet, pleasant odor and is a colorless liquid at room temperature.


What is the atomic number for Anisole?

Anisole is a compound, not an element and so it does not have an atomic number. It is composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen which have the atomic numbers 6,1, and 8 respectively.


Which is more polar fluorene or florenone?

The fluorenone is more polar because it belongs to the ketone family. The fluorene is an aromatic molecule without polar fonction and this is not the case of the fluorenone, it contains a carbonyl fonction (carbon-double bond-oxygen).


Anisole does not form peroxide easily why?

Oygen atom is strongly bonded to the benzene ring. so, anisole can not easily form peroxides. But diethyl ethers easily form peroxides in air.

What is an anisyl?

An anisyl is any of three isomeric univalent radicals derived from anisole.


Why is the pka of fluorenone different that other ketones?

9-fluorenone is different because it is a ketone with all of its carbons tied up in double bonds. There are no readily available acidic hydrogens, therefore this makes the pka of the molecule much greater than most other ketones.
