Preparation of an Ester Acetylsalicylic Acid (Aspirin) OBJECTIVE: To become familiar with the techniques and principle of esterification. DISCUSSION: Aspirin is a drug widely used as an antipyretic agent (to reduce fever)‚ as an analgesic agent (to reduce pain)‚ and/or as an anti-inflammatory agent (to reduce redness‚ heat or swelling in tissues). Chemically‚ aspirin is an ester. Esters are the products of reaction of acids with alcohols‚ as shown in the following equation using

Chemistry 1152 Lab Dr. Jerry Allison Why is the Cat Sick? Introduction: Problem: The cat Jasper is a male cat that was given an over-the-counter analgesic which had caused him to keep getting sicker. He is one years old and weighs seven pounds‚ five ounces. His symptoms included vomiting and having diarrhea for several days. His lab tests showed a metabolic acidosis meaning there was too much acid in his body fluid. This meant Jasper could have been given acetaminophen‚ aspirin‚ or ibuprofen

Nowadays‚ aspirin is often given to patients immediately after a heart attack to prevent recurrence or cardiac tissue death. Aspirin is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). NSAIDs are medications with analgesic‚ antipyretic (something that reduces a fever)‚ and in higher doses anti-inflammatory effects. Non-steroidal

Cristhian Valor Organic Laboratory Pre-Lab 1. Main reaction sequence including side reaction products: 2. 3 Sentence Summary of the Experiment: The OH group on the benzene ring in salicyclic acid reacts with acetic anhydride to form an ester functional group. Thus the formation of acetylsalicyclic acid (aspirin) is referred to as an esterification reaction‚ which requires the presence of H+ (H2SO4 in our case). The technique used to purify the aspirin content is called crystallization

Experiment 1 Synthesis of Acetaminophen Clifford Tse 20529845 Partner – Raminder Dhanoa TA – Xiao Qi CHEM 123L - 012 February 6‚ 2014 Introduction Acetaminophen‚ also commonly known as Tylenol‚ is an over-the-counter medicine used to relieve pain and reduce fevers. Within this experiment‚ Acetaminophen will be formed through the reaction between p-aminophenol and acetic anhydride. This reaction will incur Acetaminophen as a crude solid being impure‚ which will be purified further through

The purpose of our experiment was to synthesize aspirin from acetyl anhydride‚ salicylic acid‚ and sulfuric acid. And then determine the relative purity of the synthesized sample. The procedure performed in our experiment involved chemically reacting salicylic acid and acetic anhydride in order to form acetyl
