boiling original solvent if the boiling point of the original solvent is the higher of the two. A few comments about specific solvents are in order. Since most organic compounds have very low solubility in cold and hot water, water usually does not work as a recrystallization solvent. In addition,

Two solvents are used in recrystallization in order to either induce crystallization or to improve the growth of crystals. For example say a compound has poor solubility in petroleum spirit (60–80) regardless of the temperature. A second solvent, ...

different solvents. Your TA will assign the unknown to you. You must first determine at least two suitable recrystallization solvents by doing solubility tests (as in Recryst-1, it is not necessary to weigh solubility samples) and preparing a table. Several solvents are available to you in this experiment.

Often it is simpler to do the filtration and recrystallization as two independent and separate steps. That is dissolve "compound A" and "impurity B" in a suitable solvent at room temperature, filter (to remove insoluble compound/glass), remove the solvent and then …

There are many videos on 2 solvent recrystallization. I am not sure the hassle of using two solvents is worth it in the case of meth, though, as methanol and slow cooling (in a sealed erlenmeyer) with a 2 hours stay in the freezer usually does the trick.

using CDCl3 as the solvent. Recrystallization of Phenanthrene To recrystallize phenanthrene, you will follow the procedure above for the recrystallization of benzoic acid, except that you will use a solvent pair. The solvent pair that you will use is ethanol and water. Phenanthrene is readily soluble in ethanol and is not soluble in water.

The two solvents must, of course, be miscible with each other. If the crystals dissolve instantly at about 22°C, that solvent cannot be used for recrystallization because too much of the solute will remain in solution at low temperatures.

Michael Patterson has essentially nailed it. You already understand that using too much solvent will leave too much pure compound in solution. With too little solvent, as soon as you start to cool the flask you get massive nucleation. Cryst...

Two-solvent method: The first recrystallization solvent will dissolve the compound at all temperatures. The second solvent will not dissolve the compound at any temperature. The two solvents must be miscible, i.e., soluble in one another, forming a single layer solution.

Two-Solvent Recrystallization . A. When no single solvent seems to work for a recrystallization, ... the formation of crystals in 10 20 min suggests that you have a good recrystallization solvent. If no cloudiness appears, the compound is too soluble in this solvent pair. 10% excess solvent: ...

Crystallization 3 Occasionally a mixture of solvents is required for satisfactory recrystallization of a solute. The mixture is usually comprised of only two solvents; one of these dissolves the ...

Mixed solvents When no single solvent is found to be suitable for recrystallization, then a mixed solvent system must be used. There are three essential properties required for a pair of solvents to be used in a mixed-solvent system: The two solvents must be miscible in all proportions over the temperature range to be used.

A good solvent for recrystallization depends entirely on the polarity of the solid you're trying to purify. For example sodium chloride readily dissolves in water whereas naphthalene dissolves ...

Growing Crystals. One pretty reliable recrystallization technique involves a mixed solvent system. For this, you will need two solvents of different strength: one that dissolves the molecules easily (Ethyl Acetate) and another that the molecules are mostly insoluble in (Pentane).

Recrystallization - Why two solvents? When performing recrystallization using the mixed solvent method, why do you have to use two solvents? What I mean is what does it do to the solubility of the compound you are purifying (ex. when using ethanol and water you would add hot ethanol, then a few drops of water, then more ethanol?)
