What is Aspirin Synthesis via Esterification Lab about?
The practice consisted of the synthesis of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) from the esterification reaction of salicylic acid with acetic anhydride using sulfuric acid as a catalyst. A thermal bath was performed on the reactants with constant stirring to obtain the product, which was subjected to recrystallization using cold baths and vacuum filtration for purification. Finally, the obtained crystalline product was dried.
