Darnell Shaw Lab Extra Credit Hippocrates of Cas (460-377 B.C.)‚ The Healer‚ noted that chewing leaves of willow (Salix) reduced pain‚ and he prescribed this remedy for women in labor. The Healer certainly did not discover this drug‚ which was used for centuries earlier in European folk medicine. Ancient Egyptians took an infusion of dried myrtle leaves to treat muscle pain. The myrtle leaves were also found to contain salicylic acid. Two Italians‚ Brugnatelli and Fontana‚ had in fact already

October 17 & October 24‚ 2012 How is Aspirin Made? This lab is about synthesizing aspirin using a hotplate to heat the reaction. It involved vacuum filtration‚ recrystallization‚ and comparing the properties of aspirin with salicylic aspirin. The first thing we did in this lab was make a hot-water bath by putting a beaker with water on a hot plate. After measuring out 2.1 grams of salicylic acid and 3 ml of acetic anhydride‚ we mixed the two together‚ along with 3 drops of sulfuric acid. We

| 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 will influence the reading of the melting point. • Afterward we dipped the sealed capillary tube provided into the sample of our aspirin prepared until we got sufficient depth (about

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

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

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

When I carried out the experiment to produce an aspirin sample I had to take a few results I had gained from carrying out the experiment later used these to work out the experimental error and percentage % yield. The results I used where the published value of what temperature pure aspirin melts at‚ the temperature my aspirin sample melted at‚ the weight of pure aspirin and the weight of impure aspirin. Firstly I worked out the experimental
