Answer 1

If you want the aspirin synthesis with beginning compound a phenol I would suggest to find

2 ) the sinthesis of acetylsalicylic acid ( aspirin )
You can try on :

Answer 3

The key compound in the synthesis of aspirin, salicylic acid, is prepared from phenol by a process discovered over 100 years ago by the German chemist Hermann Kolbe. In the Kolbe synthesis (also known as the Kolbe-Schmitt reaction) sodium p henoxide is heated with CO2 under pressure and the reaction mixture is subsequently acidified to yield salicylic acid.
One of the best known aromatic acetates is acetylsalicylic acid, or aspirin, which is prepared by the esterification of the phenolic hydroxyl group of salicylic acid.
