[PDF] acetylsalicylic acid functional groups

There are three different functional groups in aspirin, which contribute to its properties, a weak acid soluble in basic solutions. These functional groups include carboxylic acid, ester, and an aromatic group.

  • Which functional group is not present in aspirin acetylsalicylic acid )?

    An ether funtional group is R x O R y , which is not present in this aspirin molecule. We do have a benzene ring, but it is not attached to a hydroxyl (OH) substituent. Therefore, we do not have a phenol functional group. A ketone functional group is R x ( C O ) R y , which is also not present in aspirin.

  • Does acetylsalicylic acid have a hydroxyl group?

    One of the best known aromatic acetates is acetylsalicylic acid, or aspirin, which is prepared by the esterification of the phenolic hydroxyl group of salicylic acid.
  • Aspirin, an acetylated salicylate (acetylsalicylic acid), is classified among the nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
