Vedclass · Answer

(C) Aspirin is acetylsalicylic acid,which contains a carboxylic acid group $(-COOH)$.In the basic environment of the intestine,the carboxylic acid group undergoes an acid-base reaction with the base to form a carboxylate ion $(-COO^-)$.The structure that exists in the intestine is the one where the carboxylic acid group is deprotonated to form the carboxylate anion,while the ester group remains intact.Therefore,the correct structure is the one with the $-COO^-$ group.

List-$I$ (Compounds)	List-$II$ (Reactions)
$A. \ CH_3(CH_2)_3NH_2$	$(i)$ Alkaline hydrolysis
$B. \ CH_3C\equiv CH$	$(ii)$ With $KOH$ (alc.) and $CHCl_3$ produces bad smell
$C. \ CH_3CH_2COOCH_3$	$(iii)$ Gives white ppt. with ammoniacal $AgNO_3$
$D. \ CH_3CH(OH)CH_3$	$(iv)$ With Lucas reagent cloudiness appears after $5 \ minutes$

When you ingest aspirin,it passes through your stomach,which has an acidic $pH$,before traveling through the basic environment of your intestine. Provide the structure form as it exists in the intestine.
