Combustion of Hexane Combustion of hexane with limited oxygen and addition of water to burning hexane are demonstrated.
Computational Analysis of Stereospecificity in the Cope RearrangementLaura Glish and Timothy W. Hanks Experimental product distributions from the Cope rearrangement of disubstituted 1,5-hexadienes can be readily understood by computer modeling of the various possible transitions states. Visual analysis of these geometries allow students to interpret the computational results by analogy to the familiar chair and boat conformations of substituted cyclohexanes. Glish, Laura; Hanks, Timothy W. J. Chem. Educ.2007, 84, 2001.

Determination of the Rotational Barrier for Kinetically Stable Conformational Isomers via NMR and 2D TLCGregory T. Rushton, William G. Burns, Judi M. Lavin, Yong S. Chong, Perry Pellechia, and Ken D. Shimizu After the synthesis of a N,N'-diaryl naphthalene diimide, students estimate the rotational barrier about a CarylNimidesingle bond by studying the reequilibration of the two resulting isomers using two-dimensional thin-layer chromatography, followed by a more accurate determination through a 1H NMR time study. Rushton, Gregory T.; Burns, William G.; Lavin, Judi M.; Chong, Yong S.; Pellechia, Perry; Shimizu, Ken D. J. Chem. Educ.2007, 84, 1499.

Semiempirical and DFT Investigations of the Dissociation of Alkyl HalidesJack R. Waas Enthalpy changes corresponding to the gas phase heats of dissociation of 12 organic halides were calculated using two semiempirical methods, the HartreeFock method, and two DFT methods. All five methods agreed generally with the expected empirically known trends in the dissociation of alkyl halides. Waas, Jack R. J. Chem. Educ.2006, 83, 1017.

Hexane 1 (GCMP)David M. Whisnant Hexane 1: this is a resource in the collection "General Chemistry Multimedia Problems". Hexane, a liquid hydrocarbon with the formula C6H14, burns when ignited in the presence of oxygen. In this problem we will observe videos of this combustion reaction. General Chemistry Multimedia Problems ask students questions about experiments they see presented using videos and images. The questions asked apply concepts from different parts of an introductory course, encouraging students to decompartmentalize the material.
