Induction by Iron(II) of the Oxidation of Iodide by Dichromate Acidic aqueous solutions containing dichromate and iodide ions are mixed with no reaction. The addition of a solution of iron(II) ion induces the rapid formation of brown triiodide ion.
The Iodochlorination of Styrene: An Experiment That Makes a DifferenceR. Gary Amiet and Sylvia Urban This purpose of this laboratory exercise is to determine the various substitution and elimination products generated in the iodochlorination of styrene and their relative proportions through the application of mechanistic principles and a basic knowledge of GCMS and NMR. Amiet, R. Gary; Urban, Sylvia. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 962.

Pyrolysis of Aryl Sulfonate Esters in the Absence of Solvent: E1 or E2? A Puzzle for the Organic LaboratoryJohn J. Nash, Marnie A. Leininger, and Kurt Keyes An aryl sulfonate ester is synthesized and then pyrolyzed at reduced pressure. The volatile products are analyzed using gas chromatography to determine whether the thermal decomposition occurs via an E1 or E2 mechanism. Nash, John J.; Leininger, Marnie A.; Keyes, Kurt . J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 552.

Teaching a Modified Hendrickson, Cram, and Hammond Curriculum in Organic ChemistryJoel M. Karty, Gene Gooch, and B. Gray Bowman Describes a new organic chemistry curriculum in which fundamental concepts are introduced before mechanisms, and mechanisms are introduced before reactions. Reactions are introduced according to similarities among mechanisms rather than the functional group involved. Karty, Joel M.; Gooch, Gene; Bowman, B. Gray. J. Chem. Educ.2007, 84, 1209.
