Question
Chapter 20.5, Problem 20.4P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The use of acid-base extractions to purify the heptanoic acid is to be stated and the chart that shows the impurities at each stage is to be given.
Concept introduction:
Acid-base extraction is the technique that is used to separate the acidic and basic substance from the mixture on the basis of their chemical properties. This technique is used during the work up of a reaction after the synthesis of the compounds, so that the product becomes free from any type of impurities. The acidic or basic substances that are similar in chemical properties are impossible to separate through this method.

Please be specific.arrow_forwardRestate the paragraph. The main objective of the laboratory activity was to make aspirin also known as acetylsalicylic acid in its scientific name. It was successfully done as aspirin was synthesized using the combination of salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. In this reaction, salicylic acid's hydroxyl group on the benzene ring interacted with acetic anhydride to generate an ester functional group. This is an esterification reaction that produces acetylsalicylic acid. Sulfuric acid was utilized as a catalyst to start the esterification reaction. Some unreacted acetic anhydride and salicylic acid, as well as sulfuric acid, aspirin, and acetic acid, remained in the solution after the reaction was completed. The process of crystallization was used to obtain pure crystals of a substance from an impure mixture. Upon completion of the lab, analysis, and calculations, , it is evident that the synthesis of aspirin is possible using these methods but that the yield will be relatively lowarrow_forward

The alcohol reacts with phosphorus oxychloride much like it reacts with tosyl chloride, displacing a chloride ion from phosphorus to give an alkyl dichlorophosphate ester. The dichlorophosphate group is an outstanding leaving group. Pyridine reacts as a base with the dichlorophosphate ester to give an E2 elimination.
