Questions: 1. Draw the structures of the reactants (acetic anhydride and salicylic acid) and ester product for the aspirin synthesis. 2. If the aspirin synthesis generated 1.515 grams of aspirin from fully reacting 2.300 g of salicylic acid, calculate the percent yield of the reaction. Hint: salicylic acid is limiting! 3. Draw the structure of the ester formed by the esterification of 2-methyl-1-butanol with propanoic acid (look up structures if necessary).
