Epoxidation of Alkenes - DMDO, mCPBA, & NaOCl (IOC 26)

In this episode, I discuss the epoxidation of electron-rich and electron-poor olefins, using peracids, DMDO, hydrogen peroxide, and sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl). *Note: for some reason, I didn't manage to pronounce MMPP correctly; it's full name is magnesium monoperoxyphthalate. *WARNING*

Making Calcium Peroxide (CaO2)

In today’s video we are making calcium peroxide from sodium hydroxide, calcium chloride and hydrogen peroxide. Calcium peroxide is an oxidizing agent and it could be used to make oxygen by simply heating it. Our yield was low but we managed to make some. Just to put it somewhere: the produ

Glycerol and Potassium Permanganate

When glycerol and dry potassium permanaganate are added together, an extremely exothermic reaction occurs. The potassium permanaganate is an extremely strong oxidizer and it completely oxidizes the glycerol to water and carbon dioxide.

Making cesium dichromate from chromium metal and cesium chloride

To explore an alternative route to make cesium metal, I made some cesium dichromate. Cesium dichromate can be reduced to cesium metal. Because I did not have any chromate compounds, I made the potassium dichromate myself by dissolving chromium metal and oxidizing it with hydrogen peroxid

Make Nitric Acid from Sodium Bisulfate and Sodium Nitrate

In this video we Make Nitric Acid from Sodium Bisulfate and Sodium Nitrate. I actually try a few methods like dissolving them in water first and varying the amount of reagents. Overall the best method i found was to thoroughly mix 43g of sodium nitrate with 150g of sodium bisulfate and t
