According to Reimer and Tiemann salicylic<br />
aoid is formed together with para-hydroxy-benzoic<br />
acidt the latter predominating, when an alkaline<br />
solution <strong>of</strong> phenol is boiled with carbon tetra-<br />
chloride' The reaction is:<br />
CgH 5 OH + 5NaOH + OCI4 ->C6H4(0H)000Naf 4NaCl<br />
+ 3HgQ.<br />
Sodium salicylate may also be prepared by the<br />
fusion <strong>of</strong> phenyl oarbonate and sodium hydroxide<br />
at 200°C. 9 ^<br />
(06H50)gOO + NaOH -^ C6H4(0H)000Na+ C6H5OH.<br />
Another method for the preparation <strong>of</strong> sodium<br />
salicylate is attained by passing phosgene into<br />
a solution <strong>of</strong> sodium carbonate and sodium phenate*<br />
