Synthesis of Aspirin and Oil of Wintergreen INTRODUCTION: Synthesis and use of organic compounds is an extremely important area of modern chemistry. Approximately half of all chemists work with organic chemicals. In everyday life‚ many if not most of the chemicals you come in contact with are organic chemicals. Examples include drugs‚ synthetic fabrics‚ paints‚ plastics‚ etc. Synthesis of Aspirin and Methyl Salicylate. The two compounds we will be preparing‚ aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) and oil

Reshmi Nair Title: Determination of Aspirin through back titration. Aim: To determine the concentration of Aspirin in a tablet using NaOH and Hcl. Research Question: What is the concentration of Aspirin in a normal tablet? Background: Aspirin is the general name for acetylsalicylic acid (ASA); it is also the trademark of the drug produced by Bayer in Germany. In eighty countries‚ aspirin is a registered trademark‚ but in other places the term aspirin refers to ASA by itself or as an ingredient

Grignard Synthesis of Tirphenylmethanol David Szuminsky Organic Chemistry Lab II Shaopeng Zhang Monday 1PM 2/10/14 & 2/24/14 - Abstract A sample of triphenylmethanol was prepared using Grignard synthesis techniques. Reflux was used in order to speed up the reaction and the final product was purified using recrystallization methods. The percent recovery and percent yield were 80.46% and 47.526%‚ respectively. A melting point range of 85-87oC was obtained from

Abstract Oxidation was found for primary alcohol. When 6 drops of potassium dichromate and 1 drop of concentrated sulfuric acid were added to 1-pentanol‚ the color of 1-pentaol turned into dark green. In second experiment‚ precipitation was found when 6 drops of 2‚4-dinitrophenylhydrazine were added to both 5 drops of benzaldehyde and 5 drops of acetophenone. Based on these data‚ it is possible to find alcohol by oxidation and aldehyde by observing precipitation Introduction This experiments

In our ecocolumn many changes occurred over the several week course we were observing and collecting data on the three chambers. Aquatic and Decomposition quickly turned septic while terrestrial experienced plant growth. Overall the health of the ecosystem was very poor due to the severe changes in the aquatic chamber. Terrestrial In the Terrestrial camber of our ecocolumn‚ several changes happened over time. The clover seeds planted at the beginning had a rapid growth rate. At one point our chamber

Titration- Analysis of Aspirin Tablets Objective: Determine the percentage of aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) present in two different commercial tablets by titrating the solution with a base. Also determine whether the aspirin is a strong or weak acid according to the Bronsted- Lowry and Lewis theories and deduce the formula of the acid- base reaction. Independent Variable: The amount of base (NaOH) in moles that are needed to neutralize the solution. Dependent Variable: Percentage of aspirin (acetylsalicylic

Bita Heydari Lab report 3 The Effects of Differentiation on Enzymatic Activity Introduction HL-60 cells are capable of undergoing differentiation to induce different cell types. HL-60 cells can undergo morphological changes‚ changes in gene expression‚ and changes in protein synthesis. In the past weeks‚ we were able to conclude that HL-60 cells treated with DMSO and HL-60 cells treated with PMA will differentiate into granulocytes and monocytes upon treatment (1). We were also able to observe
