Page 1 of 7 An Oxidation-Reduction Scheme: Borneol, Camphor, Isoborneol 1 This experiment will illustrate the use of an oxidizing agent (hypochlorous acid) for converting a secondary alcohol (borneol) to a ketone (camphor). The camphor is then reduced by sodium borohydride to give the isomeric alcohol isoborneol. The spectra of borneol, camphor, and isoborneol will be compared to detect structural differences and to determine the extent to which the final step produces a pure alcohol isomeric with the starting material.
