Experiment 12ISOLATION OF CAFFEINE FROM TEA OR
COFFEE
  • Reading Assignment
  • pp. 87 99
  • Technique 12, pp. 669 693
  • Green Lab Not available spring 06
  • Technique 17, pp. 745 - 749

Caffeine
3
Distribution Coefficient
See page 670-671 for an examples on how this
equation is applied to extraction.
4
Bottom line! You will
remove more solute (caffeine) from an aqueous
solution by using two 1 mL portions of methylene
chloride than by using one 2 mL portion of
methylene chloride! See the textbook for an
example.
5
Separatory funnel
Remove from top before you start to drain!
Remember! Close stopcock before pouring stuff in
the top of the funnel!
6
Which layer on the top?Which layer is on the
bottom?
You need to know the density of the methylene
chloride and the density of the aqueous phase to
answer this question!
7
Green extraction of caffeine from tea- not an
option spring 06
You will remove caffeine from tea using a Solid
Phase Extraction column (SPE). Experiment not
available spring quarter 2006
8
Solid Phase Extraction (SPE)
SPE column filled with C-18 silica
Two Neoprene adapters
To house vacuum
Filter flask
9
C-18 silica
Silica is alkylated with long chain hydrocarbon
groups, using 18 carbons long. This is usually
referred to as C-18 silica.
10
Solid phase extraction (SPE)
  • The C-18 column packing is NON-POLAR
  • Caffeine will move more slowly because it is
    attracted to the column packing.
  • The more polar components such as tannins, gallic
    acid and chlorophyll move more quickly down the
    column with the the polar water
  • Once the aqueous materials have moved down the
    column, then you elute the caffeine with ethyl
    acetate.

11
Sublimation Behavior
12
Sublimation Apparatus
To house vacuum
13
  • Three examples
  • A solid will melt if its vapor pressure is below
    the
  • applied pressure when the solid is heated to
    its
  • melting point.
  • 2. A solid will sublime if its vapor pressure is
    higher than
  • the applied pressure as it is heated. You
    will not
  • observe melting behavior.
  • If you want to sublime a solid that has a vapor
  • pressure of 50 mm Hg, you can do this if you
    reduce
  • the pressure, under vacuum, to below this
    value.

Main Reaction
19
Ideal stopping place
There may be some ROH left in the ester
20
Why the extraction with NaHCO3?
Ionic substance now soluble in the aqueous phase
Partly soluble In the ester
21
Drying agents
  • NaCl functions as a preliminary drying step. It
    also helps to break emulsions.
  • Anhydrous sodium sulfate removes remaining water

In some cases, you may observe extra unknown
peaks. Recalculate the percentages of your data
based on the alcohol and ester peaks. Round off
the percentages 4.3 cyclopentanol 95.7
cyclopentyl acetate
Assume that all response factors 1.000
24
We will not be using response factors for the
esters Lab (assuming that they are 1.0).
However, you may need to recalculate the data to
give new areas if you have extra peaks that
dont belong. The example data in the previous
slide can be used directly without doing
calculations. The usual products include alkene
from dehydration, unreacted alcohol and ester.
Esters have the longest retention times, alkenes
are lowest and unreacted alcohol is in the
middle someplace! You will also be running the
infrared spectrum of your product.

associated with the esters lab will be covered on
