Drops of Satisfaction


Half an hour...45 minutes...1 hour...
don't say that we'd done wrong things..
1 hour 15 minutes...
distilled flask was still empty!
Had to finish up to part 3 today,
by hook or by crook!
Help! Help!

"Just wait, just wait..."

"It's obviously not boiling at all!"

"Is there something wrong with our compound?"

"Just wait, just wait..."

"But if there's no product at all...PANIC!!"

Suddenly a drop came down from the condenser mouth.
Alhamdulillah.
One drop, two, three...
Fuhhhhhh...finally...
5-bromopentyl acetate gave us drops of satisfaction for today.
And for another day to proceed to another part of Queen Bee.

If not, no free Friday for this week, and we might burst into tears to start everything ALL over again!
