Synthesis of Aspirin:如何与学生的偏头痛作斗争（新）

Begin your learning experience in a modern pharmacy and help Marie the pharmacist, by synthetizing some extra aspirin in the laboratory, to fight the outbreak of headaches amongst students during the exam period.

确定反应

First, let’s dive into the theory! Learn about esterification reactions and the history of aspirin. You will be challenged to understand the correct reagents and products involved in the synthesis of aspirin. With the basics now covered, you are ready to step into the laboratory!

Perform crystallization and filtration

The practical part of the simulation begins. Following the canonical synthetic route, you go through the steps of a synthesis like you would in a real laboratory, with some precious time gained! In our virtual lab, multiple actions can happen simultaneously and you can speed up time.

从试剂称量设定正确的一个pparatus for the reaction, from finding the correct ways of cooling down a solution to following the best practices to form big crystals, you are constantly challenged and supported with the theory. A great way to learn by doing, gain lab skills and master the equipment!

Calculate the yield and check the quality of the product

To complete the experience, you are asked to look into which steps could have caused a loss of product in the whole synthetic process, and calculate the yield. You are also responsible for testing the quality of the product, and perform a qualitative analysis using the melting point technique.
