Why add of little amount from acetic anhydride in synthesis of acetanilide?
Acetic anhydride and aniline are the reactants for the preparation of acetaanilide.
What would happen if the excess acetic anhydride is not removed in the reaction vessel?
If the excess acetic anhydride is not removed in the reaction vessel an unwanted reaction will occur. The acetic anhydride will react causing esterification.
Reaction of methyl amine and acetic anhydride?
No it is not among these.
What is the product of the reaction between 4-aminophenol and excess acetic anhydride?
http://www.cerlabs.com/experiments/1053497774X.pdf follow this link to a pdf file this gives the whole information of synthesis of paracetamol from 4-aminophenol and acetic anhydride.
Chemical reaction of hydrolysis of acetic anhydride?
(CH3CO)2O (s) + H2O (l) ----------> 2 CH3COOH (aq)
Why add of little amount from acetic anhydride in synthesis of acetanilide?
Acetic anhydride and aniline are the reactants for the preparation of acetaanilide.
What is the reaction when zinc acetic anhydride and glacial acetic acid are combine?
Acetanilide
In the aspirin synthesis excess acetic anhydride is hydrolyzed by the addition of water which converts the anhydride into acetic acid Write the balanced equation for this reaction?
The reaction is: (CH3CO)2O + H2O = 2 CH3COOH
What would happen if the excess acetic anhydride is not removed in the reaction vessel?
If the excess acetic anhydride is not removed in the reaction vessel an unwanted reaction will occur. The acetic anhydride will react causing esterification.
What is an alternative reagent to ethanoic anhydride in the synthesis of aspirin from salicylic acid?
Synthesis of acetyl chloride via the reaction of acetic acid with sulphuric acid
Reaction of methyl amine and acetic anhydride?
No it is not among these.

In the preparation of aspirin water is added to the reaction flask Why?
The formation of aspirin will proceed faster if acetic anhydride is used in place of acetic acid. However, acetic anhydride will hydrolyze in the presence of water to form acetic acid, slowing down the reaction.
monobromination of acetanilide occurs,while tribromination of aniline would occur under the same conditions?
Write a detailed set of equations for the acetylation reaction, and in particular show clearly that the reaction can be regarded as a nucleophilic substitution, in which the attacking nucleophile is aniline (attacking acetic anhydride).
What are the impurity in aspirin synthesis?
The main impurties are probably the unreacted reactants. i.e salicylic acid and some acetic anhydride (ethanoic anhydride)
Chemical reaction of hydrolysis of acetic anhydride?
(CH3CO)2O (s) + H2O (l) ----------> 2 CH3COOH (aq)
How do you prepare trifluoroperacetic acid?
by urea hydrogen peroxide reaction with tri fluro acetic anhydride
