Reaction between methyl salicylate and sodium hydroxide?

When methyl salicylate (oil of wintergreen) reacts with sodium hydroxide (NaOH), it undergoes saponification to form sodium salicylate and methanol. This reaction is a base-catalyzed ester hydrolysis reaction that converts the ester functional group of methyl salicylate into a carboxylate salt.

Do sodium salicylate react with HCl and NaOH and NaHCO3?

Sodium hydroxide in a pure form is a solid, so you cannot dissolve anything in it. Normally, NaOH is used as an aqueous solution. But salicylic acid dissolves in water, so the presence of NaOH in the water is irrelevant to the solubility of salicylic acid. It is the water, not the NaOH, that dissolves the salicylic acid.


Is sodium bicarbonate insoluble in acetone?

salicylic acid is non polar and will not dissolve in water. However, it is soluble in sodium bicarbonate solution because an acid-base reaction occurs. Salicylic acid turns to a salt called sodium salicylate. Sodium salicylate is composed of a cat ion (Na+) and of an anion (salicylate ion). Because of the negative charge in the salicylate ion and the positive charge of Na+, water molecules in the sodium bicarbonate solution and from the reaction are attracted to these ions and eventually dissolve them.
