Inorganic and Organic Chemistry(CP4006) - Preparation and Recrystallisation of Aspirin
Synopsis The purpose of this experiment was for students to prepare some simple organic compound and to purify the compound by recrystallisation. This experiment allowed the students to conduct the synthesis of aspirin, acquire the skills of recrystallisation using normal filtration and reinforce the technique of the melting point determination. The method used to synthesize aspirin was esterification by reacting salicylic acid with acetic anhydride with the presence of dehydrating agent, conc. sulphuric acid, to …showed first 75 words of 1971 total…
