Question
A common undergraduate chemistry lab produces this compound from a phosphoric acid-catalyzed esterification. For 10 points each:
[10m] Name this anti-inflammatory drug derived from willow tree bark, which can cause Reye syndrome in children.
ANSWER: aspirin [or acetylsalicylic acid or ASA]
[10e] The synthesis of aspirin from salicylic acid produces this compound as a byproduct. This acid is the main component of vinegar and has the formula CH3COOH.
ANSWER: acetic acid [or ethanoic acid]
[10h] Salicylic acid can be artificially synthesized via the Kolbe-Schmitt reaction, which reacts sodium phenolate with this compound. A supercritical phase of this compound can be used to extract caffeine from coffee.
ANSWER: carbon dioxide [or CO2]
