Concepts Used:
Purification of Organic Compounds
We commonly use these methods for the purification of substances:
- Simple crystallization - The most common method that we use to purify organic solids.
- Fractional crystallization - It is the process of separation of different components of a mixture by repeated crystallisations.
- Sublimation - Certain organic solids on heating directly change from solid to vapor state without passing through a liquid state. These substances are sublimable. This process is sublimation.
- Simple distillation - It is the joint process of vaporization and condensation.
- Fractional distillation - It is the process to separate a mixture of two or more miscible liquids which have boiling points close to each other
- Distillation under reduced pressure
- Steam distillation
- Azeotropic distillation
- Chromatography
