edu/pluginfile.php/2 161240 mod resource content/0/08%20Synthesis%20of%20Aspinn.pdf Experiment 8 Synthesis of Aspirin Report Due: Week of April 23 Pre-Lab Questions: Complete the Following Table MW Equiv mL 5.0 mmol Acetic Anhydride Salicylic acid Sulfuric 15 XxX 0.05 acid, cone. Safety Precautions: Acetic anhydride is irritating to the nose and sinuses. Keep this compound under the hood at all times, and avoid breathing the vapors. The aspirin that you make in this lab is NOT pure enough to be taken internally! Do not ingest the aspirin! Aspirin: Aspirin is an effective analgesic (pain reliever), antipyretic (fever reducer) and anti-inflammatory agent and is one of the most widely used non-prescription drugs. The use of aspirin had its origin in the 18h century, when it was found that an extract from the bark of willow trees was useful in

Explanation / Answer

Experiment 8-

Acetic anhydride

Molecular weight= 102.09 g/mol

Equivalent weight= 102.09/6=17.02 ( 6 valence of acetic anhydride)

mmol:

Mol=mass(g)/molecular wt.=5.15 /102.09=0.0504mol

mmol=mol*1000= 0.0504*1000=50.4 mmol

g = volume*density= 5ml(given)*1.08=5.4

d = density= 1.09 g/ml

Volume= 5 ml (given)

Salicylic acid

Molecular weight=138.12 g/mol

Equivalent wt= 138.12/6= 23.02

mmol= 15 (given)

Mol=0.015 mol

g m= 2.88 ( using formula g= v*d, d and v is given)

d= 1.44 g/ml

Volume = 2ml

Sulfuric acid

Molecular weight= 98.09 g/mol

Equivalent wt= 49.04

Mmol

Mol = 1.85 g/ml*0.05 ml=0.0925mol

0.0925*1000=92.5 mmol

g= 0.092

d=1.84 g/ml

Volume=0.05 ml

Experiment 9-

Sebacoyl chloride

Molecular weight= 239.14 g/mol

Equivalent wt.= 239.14/16=14.95 (16 is Valence i.e no.of H atoms)

mmol=

Mol= mass/molecular weight=0.412/239.14=0.0017mol

Mmol=0.0017*1000=1.7mmol

g= v*d=0.4ml*1.12=0.448

d= 1.12 g/cc

Volume= 0.4 ml

1,6hexane diamine

Molecular weight= C6H16N2=(6*12.01)+(16*1.008)*(2*14.01)=116.21g/mol

Equivalent wt=116.21/16=7.26

mmol=0.05mol(given)*1000=50 mmol

g=0.22 (given)

d=0.5 molar solutions

Volume= g/density=0.22/0.84=0.262g/cc

NaOH

Molecular weight= 39.997 g/mol

Equivalent wt.=39.997/1=39.997

Mmol= 0.1mol*1000=100mmol

g=v*d=4ml*2.13=8.52

d=1.0molar solution

Volume=4ml(given)
