Manganese carbonate → Manganese monomaleate

Participants

Reaction Steps

An aqueous solution composed of 40 g water, 11.6 g maleic acid, and 11.5 g manganese carbonate is prepared. The carbonate slowly reacts and dissolves to give manganese maleate derivative solution. This manganese maleate solution is used as a monomer source in a polymerization such as that described in Example 8, wherein equimolar amounts of maleate and vinyl acetate were used. After that, a hydrolysis is performed using the procedures described in Example 14. The reaction proceeded as follows:
