Question

reactant:

0.400g of p-amionphenol (MW=109.1)

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

product:

acetaminophen mw = 151.2

  1. Calculate the E-factor of the process (78% actual yield).
Expert Solution
Step 1

Given :

actual yield = 78%

mass of acetaminophene = 151.2 g

mass of P-aminophenol = 0.400 g (MW = 109.1)

mass of acetic anhydride = 0.450 × 1.08 = 0.486 g
