Synthesis of Aspirin Learning Goals 1. To synthesize aspirin from salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. 2. To purify the crude product by Recrystallization. Introduction Most drugs are chemical compounds which are described as "organic compounds" because they are comprised primarily of the elements carbon‚ hydrogen and oxygen. The present experiment will be the synthesis of a familiar organic compound called aspirin. The common chemical name is acetylsalicylic acid. Aspirin‚ the

Sucrose Synthesis by D. DeWitt‚ PhD v1.5 11/10/12 Introduction | Condensation Reaction | Plant Synthesis | A. Introduction Although it might seem straight forward‚ the synthesis of sucrose‚ either as a simple condensation reaction (a.k.a. dehydration synthesis)‚ or what actually happens in plants is complicated. Before we explore sucrose’s creation‚ let’s take a look at its structure. In Figure 1‚ the space-filling model is pretty but rather useless at this point in our journey. We

EXERCISE 11 SYNTHESIS OF ASPIRIN MARAVILLA‚ Ana Mikaela B Group 4 CHEM 40.1 1L Date performed: September 30‚ 2013 Date submitted: October 7‚ 2013 VI. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Aspirin is prepared by the esterification of salicylic acid with acetic anhydride under acidic conditions. The phenol group in salicylic acid is replaced by a carboxyl group through electrophilic substitution. The mechanism for the reaction can be summarized

Abstract Introduction The acylation of the α carbon position of a carbonyl group is one of the greatest breakthroughs that has benefited chemists in organic synthesis particularly when in need of building a carbon skeleton of interest in a molecule. For one to be able perform this acylation technique‚ there are two mar approaches which are employable. The first method involves the deprotonation of the α-Carbon atom which has a pKa known to be ̴20 through the use of a strong base for instance

The first synthetic sweetener‚ saccharin‚ was discovered five years prior to Dulcin. The discovery of Dulcin occurred in 1883. Approximately seven years after it’s discovery‚ J.D. Reidel‚ of Berlin‚ was able to synthesis Dulcin at a reasonable cost. Once it became possible to synthesis at a reasonable cost‚ mass production of the sweetener began. Dulcin was favored over its competitor‚ Saccharin‚ because it did not possess a bitter aftertaste. For a very brief period of time Dulcin was marketed

esterification reaction between a carboxylic acid and an ester. Carboxylic esters‚ like isopentyl acetate‚ are normally used to create artificial flavors. In the preparation of isopentyl acetate‚ esterification of acetic acid and isopentyl alcohol occurs. Esterification is an equilibrium shift to the product side using an excess of one of the starting components. In this experiment‚ the excess reagent is acetic acid because it is not expensive and can easily be removed for the reaction. The acetic acid

In the 5th century B.C.‚ Hippocrates ground the bark into a powder‚ and later‚ the Natives Americans chewed on the bark to alleviate fever and pain1. In the 19th century‚ a German chemist by the name of Felix Hoffman wanted to find a medication that would ease

SYNTHESIS OF ESTERS USING GREEN AND NON-GREEN CHEMISTRY Abstract Esters are a class of organic compounds with the general formula RCOOR’. Ester also contributes the flavor and aromas in fruits and flowers. The esterification reactions will use in the procedure‚ which are the interaction of a carboxylic acid with an alcohol‚ aided by an inorganic acid catalyst (H2SO4). Moreover‚ the green method will not use any catalyst but using heating source instead (microwave). Based on the comparison of
