Experiment 2b: Determination of the ASA Content of Aspirin

Due Date: September 16, 2013

Experiment#: 2b
Title: Determination of the ASA Content of Aspirin
Aim: To determine the Molar Concentration of NaOH and HCl acid used in their Standardization processes and to determine the acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) content in Aspirin.
Materials/Apparatus: materials used are the same as that outlined in the laboratory procedure prepared by the laboratory instructor.
Procedure: The procedure used is the same as that outlined in the laboratory procedure prepared by the laboratory instructor.
Abstract: Aspirin is said to be the oldest and generally most useful drug due to its analgesic and antipyretic properties. Aspirin

Of HCl = 1.376 x 10-2L x 1.084×10-1molL-1 =1.492 x 10-3 moles
Number of moles of A.S.A can be found by the difference between the mean number of moles of NaOH added for hydrolysis and the mean number of moles of HCl.
Avg.vol=sample volumes# of samples Avg. vol = (42.83 + 43.40) 2 = 43.12 mL
# of moles of NaOH = Mean vol of NaOH x Molar Conc. Of NaOH = 4.312 x 10-2L ×0.09085molL-1 =3.917 x 10-3 moles
# of mol A.S.A = mean # of moles NaOH - mean # moles HCl = 3.917 x 10-3 moles - 1.492 x 10-3 moles = 2.425 x 10-3 moles Mass of ASA = # of moles x RMM = 2.425 x 10-3 moles x 180.159gmol-1 = 0.437g x 1000 mg 1g = 437mg

Mass% of each sample = mass of A.S.A x 100 mass crushed tablet

mass of sample 1 = 437 mg x 100 503.8 mg = 86.74 %

Mass of sample 2 = 437mg x 100 499.2mg = 87.54%

Mean mass% of A.S.A= 86.74%

    The Consulting Chemists Institute has been asked to analyze the drug preparation of Aspirin to find out what percentages of aspirin, sucrose, and drug preparation. The purpose of this experiment was to determine the unknown component of panacetin. Panacetin contains aspirin, sucrose, and an unknown component. Dichloromate reacts with Panacetin to produce the sucrose as an insoluble solid. Aspirin is removed from the solution by reacting with sodium bicarbonate. The aqueous layer reacts with hydrochloric acid, the unknown component can then be isolated by evaporating the solvent from the dichloromethane solution.…

    The acetaminophen (0.5395g) was crushed and added to a conical vial and was mixed with 2ml of methanol then shaken and let to sit till the undissolved particles settled to the bottom and transferred the liquid into a centrifuge tube using a filter-tip pipet. Repeating the process with an additional 2mL of methanol. The solvent was then centrifuged for 3 minutes until the mixture had settled into a supernatant liquid layer and a solid layer. Then in a prepared alumina column with 0.5 mL g of alumina 2mL of methanol was added to column and then the solution containing the drug. Followed by 1 mL of methanol through the top of the alumina. Half of the solution was then transferred into a small container. The remaining solvent was then evaporated in a preheated 50 C water bath and gentle air stream until 1 mL was left. The remaining solvent was then added and evaporated completely.…

    The medicinal properties of acetylsalicylic acid have been known for millenia. The ancient Greeks noted that extracts of willow and poplar bark were effective painkillers, though it was not until the 1800s that its active ingredient, salicylic acid, was isolated. However, it was strongly acidic and irritated membranes of the mouth and stomach. In 1875, sodium salicylate was introduced in an attempt to weaken the salicylic acid, but it was found to be medically inefficient.…

    Aspirin is the common name given to acetylsalicylic acid, sometimes abbreviated as ASA. ASA is considered to be an organic acid since it is composed of Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen which also contains the carboxyl functional group-COOH. Pure ASA can be synthesized by treating salicylic acid with acetic anhydride in the presence of a trace of either sulfuric (in our case) or phosphoric acids. The complete reaction of ASA is shown in Figure 1.1 on page 2. Figure 1 shows the reaction for the synthesis of aspirin.…
