This is a great chemplayer video. It makes me miss them. They all had really good information some a little questionable on why but they did do alot of great work. Awesome to see!
I saw a writeup with the same procedure for addition of the mixed acid, but they said to stirr under 50°C reflux for the last hour instead of room temperature. When I think about it, they used an hour instead of two for the mixed acid addition. I've actually seen a few different procedures, but this was the only one instructing to reflux at 50°C for the last hour of the synthesis.
Yes, you've to do nitration again with conc. nitric acid & sulphuric acid.

These values are not the same as in the formula, why did you make the values different? The mole ratios for mono nitro toluene should have been 1.1:1
To answer the question the colors are undoubtedly polar substitution and oxidation byproducts resulting from ring sulfonation and oxidation of the methyl group
No, it's not wrong! always concentrated acid is added to dilute one, not vice-versa! Here, sulphuric acid is 98% conc. and Nitric acid is 70-72%. Hope you understand.

Chemplayer would love the new AI voice tools that sound like real humans

Dry thoroughly on the pump
Do you add h2so4 to the reaction according to the 32% water ratio in hno3?
So how would you carry out subsequent nitrations anyway? Once all the steps of mononitration are over, just nitrate it again?

thanks
Isnt it better to wash it with 70% h2so4?
The voice hurts my ears
Any idea on what the colored, water soluble side products are?
Can you mention the time in video, so that I can easily find it?
@@EnergeticMaterialsLabs Sure: 6:21
@@Psychx_ I don't have much idea about that. It may be remaining acid🤷🏻♂️.

NT > TNT
actually NT > DNT > TNT
@@fudes587 I meant NT is better than TNT but that also is correct, yes.
@@JeffarryLounder oh lol, yea
when dinitrotoluene
Soon 👍🏻🙂
its just a Nitration correct?
yes its a nitration
It is wrong. You have to add nitric acid on sulphuric acid not sulphuric on nitric acid.
No, it's not wrong!

Hope you understand.
thank you very much for making a concept....
Is it 4-nitrotoluene?
its a mixture of 2 and 4 nitrotoluenes but in the freezing step, you separate thm
@@EdwardTriesToScience How can I separate them?
he did separate them, when he put them in the freezer and filtered it, the crystals left in the filter is the relatively pure 4-nitrotoluene
@@EdwardTriesToScience is the end product just mononitration ? to get tri-nitration , does he has to repete 2 more times ?
if you dont know that you shouldn't be making TNT
Blah blah blah
