Introduction This lab’s purpose was to determine whether Salicylic Acid made from methyl salicylate is the same as Salicylic Acid made from benzene. This information can be found by comparing the difference in melting points of the two samples of Salicylic Acid. Here are the physical properties of Salicylic Acid and the mechanism of reactions that occurred in this lab. How Salicylic Acid is derived: Procedure/Results First‚ .26mL of 2.0mmol methyl Salicylate was measured and put

The chemical equation of a Perkin Reaction can be seen below. The reaction mechanism for the synthesis of α-phenylcinnamic acid is shown below: Results: Theoretical Yield Therefore‚ phenylacetic acid is the limiting reagent. Table 1.

Report Written: 08/02/2009 Synthesis of Acetyl salicylic acid (Aspirin) Abstract Introduction: The following report contains information on how to produce aspirin. The experiment has been carried out on a small laboratory scale. The experiment starts by combining such chemicals such as salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. The synthesis of aspirin is classified as an esterification reaction. This is a substitution reaction where the alcohol group from salicylic acid reacts with ascetic anhydride

I. INTRODUCTION Synthesis Acetylsalicylic acid is an acetyl derivative of salicylic acid which appears as a white and crystalline and a weakly acidic substance with a melting point of 135°C and is also known to be aspirin. It is one of the most widely used drugs that can lower fever and is used as a painkiller. According to (Escobel‚ 2011)‚ Aspirin is synthesized through the reaction of salicylic acid with acetyl anhydride that causes a chemical reaction that turns salicylic acid’s hydroxyl group
