Apple Chemistry

What is in an apple? Nutritional wise, many vitamins and nutrients that are said to keep the doctor away. However for chemists, it is a question of what makes up these molecules that create the apple. For the class of Organic Chemistry I, this was tested out by comparing the numerous structures of chemicals of a given apple via NMR of a broken down apple pre and post dehydration. Many of the chemicals are a given for an apple like arsenic from the seeds, while others pose a question of where do apples really come from and what do we really consume.

Abstract

What is in an apple? Nutritional wise, many vitamins and nutrients that are said to keep the doctor away. However for chemists, it is a question of what makes up these molecules that create the apple. For the class of Organic Chemistry I, this was tested out by comparing the numerous structures of chemicals of a given apple via NMR of a broken down apple pre and post dehydration. Many of the chemicals are a given for an apple like arsenic from the seeds, while others pose a question of where do apples really come from and what do we really consume.
