The Synthesis of a Cockroach PheromonePatty L. Feist This paper describes the synthesis of gentisyl quinone isovalerate or blattellaquinone, a sex pheromone of the German cockroach and a compound with real-world applications. The experiment also affords students practice in extraction as well as IR and NMR spectroscopy. Feist, Patty L. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 1548.

A Guided-Inquiry Approach to the Sodium Borohydride Reduction and Grignard Reaction of Carbonyl CompoundsRobert E. Rosenberg Students teams identify unknowns and their reaction products and use their data to deduce that esters are less electrophilic than the other carbonyl compounds present, that Grignard reagents are more nucleophilic than sodium borohydride, and that carboxylic acid derivatives do not undergo the nucleophilic addition reactions that are characteristic of aldehydes and ketones. Rosenberg, Robert E. J. Chem. Educ.2007, 84, 1474.
