Acetaminophen Abstract: The aim of this experiment is to prepare Acetaminophen (p-acetamidophenol)‚ an amide. Acetaminophen will be created by treating an amine (p-aminophenol) with an acetic anhydride. Color impurities present in the solid acetaminophen will be removed and then the decolorized product will be collected on a Büchner funnel for further purification by crystallization. Purity will then be determined by melting point. Introduction: Acetaminophen is commonly used as an analgesic to

| Determining the melting point of aspirin • Firstly we turned on the melting point equipment; we referred to data tables for the actual value for the melting point of the aspirin. • Then we arranged the equipment to a point below the expected melting point we then noted that the rate of heating will influence the reading of the melting point. • Afterward we dipped the sealed capillary tube provided into the sample of our aspirin prepared until we got sufficient depth (about
