Question

reactant:

0.15g of p-amionphenol (MW=109.1)

0.165 ml of acetic anhyride (mw= 102.1 d= 1.08 ml)

product:

acetaminophen mw = 151.2

Calculate the E-factor of the process (70% actual yield).

Expert Solution

Step 1

The chemical equation for the reaction between the given reactants is;

Step 2

The number of moles of p-aminophenol and acetic anhydride are;

$\begin{array}{rcl} n_{p - a m i n o p h e n o l} & = & \frac{m_{p - a m i n o p h e n o l}}{M M_{p - a m i n o p h e n o l}} \\ = & \frac{0.15 g}{109.1 g / m o l} \\ = & 1.375 \times 10^{- 3} m o l \\ n_{a c e t i c a n h y d r i d e} & = & \frac{m_{a c e t i c a n h y d r i d e}}{M M_{a c e t i c a n h y d r i d e}} \\ = & \frac{0.165 m L \times 1.08 g m L^{- 1}}{102.1 g / m o l} \\ = & 1.745 \times 10^{- 3} m o l \end{array}$
