Questions: 1. Aspirin can be hydrolysed (+ water) back to the starting materials (below). Sketch this reaction mechanism in your notebook, with two steps completed i.e. '1': "OH attacks first to initiate the reaction, followed by 2': movement of electron pair to oxygen You complete Steps '3' ? and 4' ? This will provide you with the reaction mechanism and the products formed: Aspirin Hydrolysis Mechanism-complete: 1. 2 CH сна 오 오 H TOH H COOH COOH -OH Complete 3.4 constant Products? used in calculations 2. Account for the difference between your melting point and the literature value. 3. Name the two methods you used to determine the purity of your sample and comment on which you believe is more informative. Use visual spectrophomele inftration
