Suppose you were trying to find a solvent for a recrystallization of each compound below. You did one test with a solvent, get the results stated - from the table of solvents, what should your next likely solvent to try be? Be sure to explain your answer and be specific.
Table of Solvents:
Solvent Dielectric constant Benzene 2.28 Ether 4.34 Isopropanol 18.3 Water 78.5
a.) DDT is very soluble in ether at room temperature
b.) Glucosamine does not dissolve in even hot isopropanol
