    The Synthesis of Organic Aspirin ABSTRACT: The purpose of this experiment was to find out how a reaction undergoes for a globally known painkiller called aspirin‚ and to become familiar with achieving successful yields. Aspirin is synthesized from salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. Those two chemicals are mixed together along with sulfuric acid to form a crude solid. Filtration is used separate the impurities from the crude aspirin. To get purified aspirin‚ the precipitate was heated until all

    Acid (ASA or Aspirin) Background Salicylic acid is a phenol as well as a carboxylic acid. It can therefore undergo two different types of esterification reactions‚ creating an ester either with the hydroxyl or with the acid. In the presence of acetic anhydride‚ acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin or ASA) is formed. Correspondingly‚ an excess of methanol will form methyl salicylate‚ which is also an analgesic. In this experiment‚ we shall use the former reaction to prepare aspirin. Salicylic

    Synthesis of Aspirin Abstract The purpose of this experiment is to synthesize a common organic product called acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin)‚ and to become familiar with the optimum conditions needed for successful yields. Aspirin is produced from an acid catalyzed reaction between salicylic acid with acetic anhydride. The crystalline aspirin is synthesized and purified by recrystallization‚ although there is not a hundred percent yield due to sources of error. Introduction Aspirin is a medicine

    filtered and air dried to yield 0.45 g of sucrose (15.0 % of original Panacetin). Isolation of Aspirin: The organic filtrate was extracted through a separatory funnel with 32 mL 5% sodium bicarbonate to produce an aqueous layer and a dichloromethane layer. 7.2 mL 6 M hydrochloric acid were added to the aqueous layer until the pH was 2. The mixture was then cooled in an ice/water bath for 10 minutes. The aspirin was collected by vacuum filtration. After it dried‚ it yielded 0.93 g (30.9 % of original Panacetin)

    The experiment obtained Starch to have a bulk density of 0.48g/ml‚ i.e. 0.48g of Starch occupies 1ml of water. This value represented the density of starch incorporating the voids. The tapped density was found to be 0.60g/ml. This value represented the density of starch excluding the voids and intra- particle pores greater than molecular and atomic dimensions in the crystal lattice. This simple means‚ by reducing the number of intermolecular spaces between the starch particles‚ 0.60g of starch was

    CM1191 Experiment 5 Kinetic Studies on the Decomposition of Aspirin Aims To investigate the molar absorptivity of salicylic acid To determine the concentration of dissolved aspirin in heated water at various times To determine the effective rate constant of the decomposition of aspirin in heated water at 85°C. Results and Discussion The molar absorptivity of salicylic acid‚ ε‚ can be calculated from the equation‚ A = εcl. A more accurate value can be obtained by finding the gradient of a graph

    Abstract In this piece of coursework I have been investigating the synthesis of Aspirin and checking for presence and purity of Aspirin. Throughout this coursework we have looked at the history of Aspirin; industrial manufacturing; making salicylic acid; the preparation of Aspirin; recrystallization and purity; melting point; thin layer chromatography (TLC) and titration of Aspirin. I’ve learned a lot about Aspirin‚ how it works and how it is made. We found out that the Aspirin we made and used

    Synthesis of Aspirin and Oil of Wintergreen Janelle Alyssa P. Prudente De La Salle University-Dasmariñas Dasmariñas City‚ Cavite‚ Philippines ABSTRACT In this experiment‚ acetylsalicylic acid commonly known as aspirin and methyl salicylate‚ commonly known as oil of wintergreen‚ was synthesized from salicylic acid. This study will show that it is possible to show two very different organic compounds from the same common starting material. For the synthesis of aspirin‚ salicylic acid
