Aqueous chromium trichloride hexahydrate solution (23.95 g, 0.09 mol of Cr in 63 ml of water/was added dropwise over a period of 3.5 hours to an ammonium picolinate solution (271.4 g; 0.325 mol; 16.8%), pH 7.1, 73° C. in a 500 ml flask. The resulting violet solution was stirred for a further 1 hour and then slowly cooled to 3° C. After the red solid which had formed had settled out, the upper blue phase was decanted off. The solid was suspended in 100 ml of water for 30 min., and decantation was repeated. After a second suspension in 50 ml of water (30 min.), the solid was filtered off with suction and dried at 50° C. in vacuo. 33.64 g of dark red crystals was obtained (90 percent yield).
