Question

C)

(c) During the recrystallization step, Bailey sets her flask with crude vanillyl alcohol and flask
with ethyl acetate on the hot plate and begins heating. She waits until the ethyl acetate is
boiling and recrystallizes her product. Later, she notices that her product looks different
than her peers. She also recovered little vanillyl alcohol.
i.
Identify the error that Bailey made with recrystallization that caused these ending
discrepancies.
ii.
In this experiment, name one technique of recrystallization that can result in a
larger vanillyl alcohol yield. (Hint: Minimizing solvent is not an answer)
