Abstract: Compositions in which aspirin is present in combination with alkaline compounds, especially those containing water of crystallization (hydrates), deteriorate on standing. This deterioration may take several forms: It can be a physical deterioration in which such aspirin compositions become completely unmanageable, wet, gummy, sticky masses; or chemical decomposition in which aspirin loses its molecular structure chiefly by losing the acetyl group. The latter is accompanied by formation of acetic acid, the mixture developing its characteristic acetic odor. In both cases, such compositions become entirely unsuitable for all practical commercial and medicinal purposes. Yet, when preparation of water-soluble aspirin compositions is desired, it is impossible to avoid the use of alkaline compounds. This is because the only known method of converting aspirin into soluble form is by means of reacting it with an alkaline compound to form the soluble salt of aspirin.
