Revision303 Aspirin is produced from 2-hydroxybenzenecarboxylic
Revision303 acid by reaction with Revision303
ethanoic anhydride in the presence of concentrated phosphoric acid.
Method
1. Add 2-hydroxybenzenecarboxylic acid to a conical flask.
2. Add excess ethanoic anhydride.
3. Add a few drops of concentrated phosphoric acid.
4. Heat the flask to 85 °C for 10 minutes.
5. Cool the flask and pour the contents into 150 cm3 of cold water.
6. Filter and wash the impure solid aspirin.
7. Recrystallise the aspirin using a 50:50 mixture of water and ethanol.
8. Check the purity of the aspirin.
0 1 . 2 Aspirin can also be produced by reacting 2-hydroxybenzenecarboxylic acid with
ethanoyl chloride.
State why ethanoic anhydride is preferred to ethanoyl chloride for this preparation.
