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

Commercial Aspirin Tablet Analysis Tuesday Evening Intro: The purpose of this lab was to analyze commercial aspirin tablets. To do so‚ the percent acetylsalicyclic acid (active ingredient) in tablets using acid-base titration was determined‚ the percent acetylsalicyclic acid in tablets by formation of a colored iron(III)-salicylate complex was determined using spectrometry‚ and then the percents from each process was compared. Acetylsalicylic acid is produced when salicylic acid and acetic

Greaves Chem3301-112 June 19‚ 2013 Synthesis of Aspirin from Methyl Salicylate Introduction The synthesis of Aspirin (Acetyl Salicyclic Acid) began with methyl salicylate and sodium hydroxide as the reagent. The polar oxygen accepts the electrons from now positively charged hydrogen. The positively charged sodium disassociates leaving the hydroxide ion with a negative Scheme 1 shows the mechanisms that were demonstrated during the synthesis of Aspirin. charge that attracts to the positively charged

to synthesise pure aspirin using chemical tests such as esterification and recrystallization independently and to also find out the melting point range of aspirin using melting point determination. INTRODUCTION Aspirin‚ which is also known as acetylsalicylic acid‚ is one of the commonly used and widely found in any drugstore or pharmacy. Its properties make aspirin a well-rounded drug that reduces inflammation and fever and also relieves pain. The active ingredient in aspirin was found to be salicylic

and silver deserve to have their integrity as unique substances respected‚ so do humans understandably try to uphold the purity of their given inclinations and values. Sectarian paths of all kinds come from this need to uphold congruency‚ and our many different schools of thought in both science and religion are the result. The price of purity is truth‚ however‚ for where purity demands homogeneity‚ truth contains multitudes. Whether we seek spiritual transcendence and deny our primitive biology

Aspirin were used to relieve pain‚ inflammation‚ and fever. Aspirin were made using a combination of salicylic acid and acetic anhydride.The goal of this experiment was to determined the purity of aspirin using different methods. These methods included‚ reacting salicylic acid with FeCl3‚ finding its melting points‚ and by doing Thin-layer chromatography. When you reacted salicylic acid with FeCl3‚ changes in color will occur. Pure Aspirin has a melting point around 135°C and a pure salicylic acid

to be 1.43 x 10-3‚ as shown in Equation 3. The purified aspirin product was a white powder that had a weight of .140 g. The number of moles of the purified aspirin product after extraction was 7.77 x 10-4 as shown in Equation 4. These two moles calculated a chemical yield of 54.3% as shown in Equation 5. The melting point of the pure aspirin product was ranged at 117.8-125.2C as shown in Table 1. An infrared spectrum for the pure aspirin from the synthesis was taken by using crushed crystals

4.2 Separation Techniques & Assessment of Purity By Grace Ngana |P3 |You have briefly written up what you did in measuring the melting point in 3rd person past tense. | 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

aspirin Intro- Aspirin is known as a pain reliever for muscle ache‚ head ache and can prevent heart attacks as well as blood clots‚ and many more things that it can help with. Aspirin is known as Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) is a Salicylate. Salicylates are organic acids from plants that people for hundreds of years have been used for pain reducing. Salicylic acid irritates the stomach when consumed so German scientist Felix Hoffman suggested ASA as an alternative. Aspirin is made when Acetic Anhydride

History Of Aspirin Aspirin is one of the most commonly used drugs in the world.. For centuries people throughout the world. Aspirin was discovered about 3500 years ago. A collection of 877 medicinal recipes‚ The Ebers papyrus‚ before Christ‚ from the middle of the second millennium had been bought during the last century from an Egyptian street vendor by Georg Ebers‚ a German Egyptologist Georg. He recommended an infusion of dried myrtle leaves for rheumatic and back pain. More than a
