Sodium salicylate is a sodium salt of salicylic acid. It can be prepared from sodium phenolate and carbon dioxide under higher temperature and pressure. Historically, it has been synthesized by refluxing methyl salicylate (wintergreen oil) with an excess of sodium hydroxide.[2]

Properties

Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Sodium salicylate is of the salicylate family. It is a shiny white powder with an aromatic flavor.[3]

Uses

It is used in medicine as an analgesic and antipyretic.[4] Sodium salicylate also acts as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), and induces apoptosis in cancer cells [5][6][7] and also necrosis.[8] It is also a potential replacement for aspirin for people sensitive to it. It may also be used as a phosphor for the detection of vacuum ultraviolet radiation and beta radiation.[9]
