of the stomach. In this experiment we synthesized salicylic acid from methyl salicylate. We converted the functional group known as an ester into a functional group known as a carboxylic acid. Methyl salicylate is also a botanical extract. It is the major constituent of oil of wintergreen‚ which makes up over 90% of the essential oil from the wintergreen plant. It is also a common flavoring in candy. However‚ most methyl salicylate used in foods is made synthetically‚ a cheaper process than its

an Sn 1 Reaction Purpose The purpose of this experiment was to prepare an alkyl halide‚ 2-chloro-2-methylbutane by reacting 2-methyl -2-butanol (t-amyl alcohol) with hydrochloric acid. Alkyl halides are of wide interest because they are widespread and have diverse beneficial and detrimental impacts .The overall reaction is given below: Procedure 1 ml of 2-methyl-2-butanol was measured using 1 ml syringe and transferred into a 5 ml conical vial. 2.5 ml of highly concentrated Hydrochloric acid

may have caused poor purity‚ of which include reaction incompletion during exposure to microwave radiation‚ poor mixing‚ and poor product isolation during column chromatography. As seen in the 1H NMR spectrum‚ impurity peaks (>10%) corresponding to methyl (triphenylphosphoranylidene) acetate‚ acetone‚ ethyl acetate‚ and hexane were identified. The phosphonium ylide peak indicates that the reaction did not go to completion (leftover starting material). Meanwhile‚ the acetone‚ ethyl acetate‚ and hexane

EXPERIMENT 4: Synthesis of Salicylic Acid from Wintergreen Oil Abstract: The purpose of this experiment is to take methyl salicylate (wintergreen oil) and by heating it under reflux with NaOH as a solvent‚ and then cooling the mixture with H2SO4 as another solvent‚ synthesize salicylic acid. The final step involves purify the product to produce as pure a sample of salicylic acid as possible. This process allowed for the successful production of 1.406g salicylic acid‚ an 82.70% yield. The NMR and

The Preparation of Methyl Salicylate Introduction: Esters have various smells that differ due to the types of carboxylic acids and alcohols one mixes together. This is called esterfication. The reaction is catalyzed by an inorganic acid usually H2SO4 Purpose: In this lab Methanol alcohol and Salicylic acid were reacted together to form Methyl Salicylate. This was done to determine the characteristic odour of the Methyl Salicylate. Safety: Safety goggles must be worn at all times. Methanol: Toxic

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 was mixed with one drop of 85% H2SO4 and 0.3mL of acetic anhydride. The collected aspirin was obtained by means of vacuum filtration. For the synthesis of methyl salicylate‚ 0.25g of salicylic acid was

chains present‚ both of them are methyl groups. The second step of the naming process is to label the carbon atoms so the atoms bonded on the side chains have the lowest number possible (see figure 2). In this case if the carbon atoms had been labelled from the other direction the methyl group on carbon 4 could continue to be labelled as carbon 4‚ however the second methyl group on carbon 3 would be labelled as carbon 5. Therefore the numeration is chosen where the methyl groups are attached to 3rd and
