Abstract

Objective: A study have been conducted, aimed to differ the product after reaction between 2,4-bis-
(4-nitrobenzylidene)-3-pentanone from 4-nitrobenzaldehyde and 3-pentanone using NaOH as a
catalyst undergo aldol reaction.

Method: The experiment was done by mixing aldol reaction, 4-nitrobenzaldehyde with liquid 3-
pentanone using NaOH as a catalyst and ethanol as a solvent. Once the crude product obtained, it
was isolate it using liquid-liquid extraction method.

Finding: The product obtained 2,4-bis-(4-nitrobenzylidene)-3-pentanone is different with 4-


nitrobenzaldehyde as prove by TLC test, UV spectrophotometry, and physical properties analysis.

Conclusion: From the analysis it could be concluded that there was different chemical properties
(wavelength & Rf) and physical properties (physical appearance and solubility) before and after
reaction of with 4-nitrobenzaldehyde and 3-pentanone. It proves that aldol condensation occurred in
this reaction. It is suggested to confirm the molecule structure of the product that was predicted as
2,4-bis-(4-nitrobenzylidene)-3-pentanone by using IR, NMR, Mass spectroscopy in further
experiment.

Abstrak

Objektif: Sebuah kajian dijalankan untuk membezakan 2,4-bis-(4-nitrobenzylidene)-3-pentanone


dengan tindak balas oleh 4-nitrobenzaldehyde dengan 3-pentanone menggunakan NaOH sebagai
pemangkin yang melalui tindak balas aldol.

Kaedah: Dengan menggunakan mencampurkan tindak balas aldol, 4-nitrobenzaldehyde boleh


bertindak balas dengan cecair 3-pentanone menggunakan NaOH sebagai pemangkin dan etanol
sebagai pelarut. Apabila produk diperolehi, ia diasingkan menggunakan cara pemisahan cecair.1

Dapatan: Produk (2,4-bis-(4-nitrobenzylidene)-3-pentanone) itu berbeza dengan 4-


nitrobenzaldehyde. Ini dibuktikan oleh ujian kromatografi lapisan nipis, UV spectrophotometri, dan
analisis ciri-ciri fizikal.

Kesimpulan: daripada analisis yang dijalankan, boleh dirumuskan bahawa terdapat perbezaan ciri-ciri
kimia (wavelength & Rf) dan cirri-ciri fizikal (cirri-ciri fizikal dan kelarutan) sebelum dan selepas
tindak balas 4-nitrobenzaldehyde dan 3-pentanone. Ini membuktikan bahawa terdapat tindak balas
pengewapan aldol dalam tindal balas ini. Ia adalah disarankan untuk diuji struktur melekul yang telah
dijangka sebagai 2,4-bis-(4-nitrobenzylidene)-3-pentanone menggunakan IR, NMR, Spektroskopi jisim
didalam kajian di masa akan dating.
