Explain the presence of phenols with ferric chloride

Reference no: EM13553757

A student performed the reaction of this experiment (preparation of aspirin) using a water bath at 90 degrees C instead of 50 degrees C. The final product was tested for the presence of phenols with ferric chloride. The test was negative (no color observed); however, the melting point of the dry product was 122-125 degrees C. Explain these results as completely as possible.
