Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), \ch{C9H8O4}, is a synthetic organic derivative of salicylic acid
|
||||||
|
and is commonly known as aspirin.\\

Commercial aspirin is commonly synthesized from salicylic acid through Eq~\ref{eq:aspirin-syn},
|
||||||
|
and the two molecules differ by an ester group (\ch{-OCOCH3}).
|
||||||
|
\begin{equation}
|
||||||
|
\ce{C7H6O3 + C4H6O3 ->[H2SO4] C9H8O4 + CH3COOH}
|
||||||
|
\label{eq:aspirin-syn}
|
||||||

\end{equation}
