Treatment of sodium salt of phenol with carbon dioxide under pressure brings about substitution of the carboxyl group, -COOH, for hydrogen of the ring. This provides a path of conversion of phenol into hydroxy carboxylic acids. The acids formed are industrially very important compounds and form many useful compounds. How will you convert the product into aspirin?

Treatment of sodium salt of phenol with carbon dioxide under pressure brings about substitution of the carboxyl group, -COOH, for hydrogen of the ring. This provides a path of conversion of phenol into hydroxy carboxylic acids. The acids formed are industrially very important compounds and form many useful compounds. Why do we use sodium phenoxide rather than phenol for this reaction?

Treatment of sodium salt of phenol with carbon dioxide under pressure brings about substitution of the carboxyl group, -COOH, for hydrogen of the ring. This provides a path of conversion of phenol into hydroxy carboxylic acids. The acids formed are industrially very important compounds and form many useful compounds. Write the IUPAC name and the structure of the product formed from sodium phenoxide.
