- The synthesis of aspirin is a common esterification reaction. It is based on the balanced reaction given in the background of this lab. Calculate the theoretical yield of aspirin given that 3.52-mL of acetic anhydride was reacted with 0.9457-g of salicylic acid. Synthesized solids often need to be purified prior to use. What are some ways you could purify synthesized aspirin in the laboratory?
