HCID 12054679Manganese dipropionateYield 67.67%

Procedure

In one embodiment of this process, anhydrous propionic acid was mixed with dry manganese carbonate and sodium hydroxide beads to yield greater than 67.67 percent manganese propionate and sodium propionate in 2.5 hours. In comparison, where sodium hydroxide not used, the yield of manganese propionate was less than 1.00 percent after stirring the mixture under vacuum for 48 hours.
