Funnel bottom

For the more complete separation of the filtrate from the precipitate, press the latter slightly against the funnel bottom with a glass stopper. Filtration is considered to be complete if filtrate drops no longer appear at the tip of the funnel. Prior to closing the cock of the water-jet pump, extinguish the vacuum in the suction flask. To do this, open the safety clamp on the outlet tube or extract the stopper with the funnel from the suction flask. 

A funnel bottom with a sinter plate rather than a low permeability ceramic perforated plate is preferred, and such an arrangement is shown schematically in Section 4.1 where the filtration test procedure and analysis procedures are also described in detail. 

Fit a 500 ml. round-bottomed flask with a dropping-funnel, and with an efficient reflux water-condenser having a calcium chloride guard-tube at the top. 

Place 0 5 ml. of the pyridine in a 200 ml. round- or flat-bottomed flask and add 34 ml. (30 g.) of benzene. Fit the flask with a reflux water-condenser, and then place it in a cold water-bath. If the experiment is conducted in a fume-cupboard, the top of the condenser can be closed with a calcium chloride tube bent downwards (as in Fig. 61, p. 105 or in Fig. 23(A), p. 45, where the outlet-tube A will carry the calcium chloride tube) and the hydrogen bromide subsequently allowed to escape if, however, the experiment is performed in the open laboratory, fit to the top of the condenser (or to the outlet-tube A) a glass delivery-tube which leads through a piece of rubber tubing to an inverted glass funnel, the rim of which dips just below the surface of some water... 

Fit a three necked 250 ml. flask with a central rubber-sleeved or mercury-sealed stirrer, c/. Fig. 23(c), p. 45, where only two necks are shown, and with a thermometer the bulb of which reaches as near the bottom of the flask as the stirrer allows the third neck will carry at first a dropping-funnel and later a reflux condenser. Place 20 g. (19-5 ml.) of ethyl acetoacetate and 45 ml. of glacial acetic acid in the flask and by ice-water cooling adjust the temperature of the stirred mixture to 5 -7° maintain this temperature whilst adding a solution of 5 4 g. of sodium nitrite in 8 ml. of water slowly from the dropping-funnel during 15 minutes. Continue the stirring for 20-30 minutes, and then... 

Place 38 ml. of isopropanol in a two-necked 500 ml. round-bottomed flask fitted with (a) a reflux water-condenser having a calcium chloride tube at the top, and (b) a dropping-funnel. Cool the flask in ice-water and then run 13 5 ml. of phosphorus trichloride in from the dropping-funnel during 15 minutes. Then allow the reaction-mixture to attain room temperature. Now replace the condenser and the... 

Formation of nitrosaminey RgN NO. (a) From monomethylaniline. Dissolve I ml. of monomethylaniline in about 3 ml. of dil. HCl and add sodium nitrite solution gradually with shaking until the yellow oil separates out at the bottom of the solution. Transfer completely to a smdl separating-funnel, add about 20 ml. of ether and sh e. Run off the lower layer and wash the ethereal extract first with water, then with dil. NaOH solution, and finally with w ter to free it completely from nitrous acid. Evaporate the ether in a basin over a previously warmed water-bath, in a fume cupboard with no flames near. Apply Liebermann s reaction to the residual oil (p. 340). 

Filling and sealing the Carius tube. Introduce 100-150 mg. of powdered silver nitrate into the Carius tube, either through a spill of filter -paper rolled and inserted as described on p.418, or through a small funnel, so that the powder falls freely to the bottom of the tube and does not touch or adhere to the walls. 

Sulphuric acid method. Place 20 g. of commercial cycZohexanol and 0-6 ml. of concentrated sulphuric acid in a 150 or 200 ml. round-bottomed or bolt head flask, add 2-3 chips of porous porcelain, and mix well. Fit the flask with a fractionating column, a Liebig condenser, adapter and filter flask receiver as in Section 111,10 (1). Heat the flask in an air bath (Fig. II, 5, 3) at such a rate that the temperature at the top of the column does not rise above 90° alternatively, an oil bath, heated to a temperature of 130-140°, may be used. Stop the distillation when only a small residue remains and the odour of sulphur dioxide is apparent. Transfer the distillate to a small separatory funnel. 

Place 35 ml. of water in the separatory funnel and run it into the vigoroiisly stirred reaction mixture at such a rate that rapid refluxing occurs. Follow this by a cold solution of 15-5 ml. of concentrated sulphuric acid in 135 ml. of water. Two practically clear layers will now be present in the flask. Decant as much as possible of the ethereal layer A) into a 500 ml. round-bottomed flask. Transfer the remainder, including the aqueous layer, into a separatory funnel wash the residual solid with two 10 ml. portions of ether and combine these washings with the liquid in the separatory funnel. Separate the ethereal portion and combine it with (A). Distil off the ether through an efficient fraction-... 

Now run in a solution of 52 g. (53-5 ml.) of pure diethyl carbonate (1) in 70 ml. of anhydrous ether, with rapid stirring, over a period of about one hour. A vigorous reaction sets in and the ether refluxes continually. When the diethyl carbonate has been added, heat the flask on a water bath with stirring for another hour. Pour the reaction mixture, with frequent shaking, into a 2 litre round-bottomed flask containing 500 g. of crushed ice and a solution of 100 g. of ammonium chloride in 200 ml. of water. Transfer to a separatory funnel, remove the ether layer, and extract the aqueous solution with two 176 ml. portions of ether. Dry...
