Wt of maleic anhydride = 1.005g Moles of maleic anhydride = Volume of cyclopentadiene Density of cyclopentadiene = 0.852 g/mL Wt of cyclopentadiene = = 1.05 mL Moles of cyclopentadiene = Wt of product = 0.9756 g Melting point of product = 163-164C Calculation of yield Determine the limiting reagent and use to calculate the % yield Interpret the IR spectra of the product obtained and is found in the posted procedure Questions 1) Why was the cyclopentadiene measured out in the hood and not weighed? Liquids can be weighed. Why was it not weighed in this case? 2) Why during crystallizing was the mixture allowed to cool slowly to room temperature and not immediately placed in an ice bath 3) Why was a Buchner funnel used instead of gravity filtration 4) If you had used cyclohexadiene instead of cyclopentadiene, what would your product be? Draw its structure. cyclohexadiene cyclopentadiene? 5) Using specific structures explain the difference between a diene and a dienophile
