Q

method for the preparation of aspirin

A
  1. weigh 2g of 2-hydroxybenzoic acid and put it in a pear-shaped flask. Clamp the flask and suspend it in a beaker of water
    2.Add 5cm3 of ethanoic anhydride to the 2-hydroxybenzoic acid. Add five drops of concentrated sulfuric acid to the mixture in the flask. Fix a condenser on the flask.
    3.In a well-ventilated room, use a Bunsen to heat mixture in water bath, swirl until all solid has dissolved
  2. Continue warming the mixture for another 10 minutes
  3. Remove the flask from the hot water bath. Add 10cm3 of crushed ice and some distilled water to the reaction mixture to break down any unreacted ethanoic anhydride
  4. Stand the flask in a beaker of iced water until precipitation appears to be complete
    7.Filter off the product using Buchner funnel and suction apparatus
    8.Wash the crystals with the minimum volume of iced water
    9.Recrystallise the aspirin in minimum volume of mixture of ethanol and water
  5. Filter and dry the crystals
  6. Measure mass and melting point of crystals
