Reaktionsschritte

Cadmium nitrate (5 mmol) was dissolved in anhydrous methanol (50 mL). A sodium-myristate solution was prepared by dissolving sodium hydroxide (15 mmol) and myristic acid (15 mmol) in anhydrous methanol (500 mL). Then the cadmium-nitrate solution was added dropwise (one drop per second) into the sodium-myristate solution with vigorous stirring. The resulting white precipitate was washed with methanol three times, and then dried at ˜60° C. under vacuum overnight.
