    production. However‚ isoborneol is more toxic than borneol and thus is not favored regarding the safety issue of drugs. But how can we synthesize borneol in a way that gives more borneol than toxic isoborneol? An experiment of making borneol from camphor (FIGURE-3) is performed in two different methods‚ Sodium Borohydride Reduction and Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley Reduction‚ to compare the relative product ratio of borneol to isoborneol. The concept of reduction and also oxidation‚ the opposite procedure

    Oxidation of Borneol to Camphor Objectives: The purpose of this experiment was to use oxidation to convert (1S)-(-)-borneol into (1S)-(-)-camphor‚ which was done via the use of reagents such as glacial acetic acid and sodium hypochlorite and laboratory techniques learned in previous labs. Afterward‚ the final desired product was obtained‚ and to characterize and ensure the purity of the product‚ further lab techniques were implemented. Overall Reaction: 0 out of 10 Oxidation Reaction:. Mechanism:

    I. INTRODUCTION Synthesis Acetylsalicylic acid is an acetyl derivative of salicylic acid which appears as a white and crystalline and a weakly acidic substance with a melting point of 135°C and is also known to be aspirin. It is one of the most widely used drugs that can lower fever and is used as a painkiller. According to (Escobel‚ 2011)‚ Aspirin is synthesized through the reaction of salicylic acid with acetyl anhydride that causes a chemical reaction that turns salicylic acid’s hydroxyl group
