via the esterification of p-aminobenzoic acid with ethanol. The percent yield of crude product was determined to be 21% and the melting point was recorded at 86.2°C ± 0.2°C‚ with a 6.3% error from 92°C‚ the literature melting point of pure benzocaine. The crude product was then recrystallized to improve the purity of benzocaine and 57.4% was recovered. The new melting point range was measured at 89.1°C ± 0.3°C‚ which has a 3.15% error. The infrared spectrum of the recrystallized product was measured

America is called the “Melting Pot” because of the diversity of the American culture.
