NileRed | Making an old pain and fever medication @NileRed | Uploaded 7 years ago | Updated 18 hours ago
Today I will be making acetanilide, which was historically used as a pain reliever. It was discovered in 1886 and sold under the brand name Antifebrin by the company Kalle & Co. It has since been completely replaced by paracetamol/acetaminophen.
