Healthy adults: In a 1981 study, healthy adults received 1 gram of vitamin C intravenously. One hour later, the neutrophil motility (how fast your white blood cells can move) and leukocyte transformation in the subjects' blood had increased significantly.
THE REACTIONS OF EXPERIMENT 35 Refer to pages 289 - 290 of your textbook.It is clear now how the oxidation-reduction scheme of p. 289 is being used here to illustrate the concept experimentally.An alcohol (borneol) is being oxidized into a ketone (camphor).
tert-Butyl alcohol (TBA) , or 2-methylpropan-2-ol (2M2P), is the simplest tertiary alcohol. It is one of the four isomers of butanol. tert-Butyl alcohol is a clear liquid (or a colorless solid, depending on the ambient temperature) with a camphor-like odor.s a tertiary alcohol, tert-butyl alcohol is more stable to oxidation and less reactive than the other isomers of butanol. When tert-butyl alcohol is deprotonated with a strong base, the product is an alkoxide anion.
