Salicylic acid is both an acid and an alcohol, and can also form an ester with its -OH functional group and an acid. Draw the structural formula for the ester formed when the -OH group of salicylic acid links up with acetic acid (ethanoic acid). It should be called salicyl acetate, but usually goes by the name acetyl salicylic acid (sometimes abbreviated as ASA).
