Nitric Acid → HCID 3015351, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Ceric hydroxide (10.4 gm, 50 mmole) was dissolved in 35 ml of nitric acid with heating. The solution was allowed to cool slightly and triethylamine (20.9 ml, 150 mmole) was added dropwise over a period of about 5 minutes. The resulting reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours and then cooled in an ice bath. The resulting orange precipitate was filtered, washed quickly with deionized water, and recrystallized from hot water to give 4 gm of orange solid, mp 135° C. (yield 11%)
