Greener Synthesis of Acetylsalicylic Acid
Product Code : JA-GCE-6830
The Greener Synthesis of Acetylsalicylic Acid kit (SKU JA-GCE-6830) takes students through a multi-step synthesis that starts from a naturally occurring, renewable resource. They first produce sodium salicylate, convert it to salicylic acid, confirm it with a quick test and then use it to synthesise acetylsalicylic acid. This acetylsalicylic acid synthesis kit illustrates green chemistry principles in organic practicals, has materials for 15 groups with a teacher's manual and copy masters, and is supplied by JaincoLab.
Specifications
The kit provides enough materials for 15 groups to carry out the sequence from a renewable natural starting material to sodium salicylate, salicylic acid and acetylsalicylic acid, including a quick identification test, with a teacher's manual and student copy masters; reagent identities and quantities are confirmed on the quotation.

Teaching organic synthesis with the greener route
Following a synthesis from a natural raw material to a familiar compound shows students how multi-step organic preparations work, how a product is identified along the way, and how green chemistry favours renewable starting materials and simpler procedures.
- Senior-school and college organic chemistry practicals
- Esterification and hydrolysis reactions in sequence
- Green chemistry units on renewable feedstocks
- Product identification and purity-test exercises
