TIBA isododecane → 2,3,5-Triiodobenzoic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

19.6 mL of TIBA/isododecane solution (110 g/L) were mixed with 4.5 mL of MAO/toluene solution (Albemarle 30% wt/wt, d=0.928 g/mL) to obtain a MAO/TIBA molar ratio of 2:1. The solution was stirred for 1 h at room temperature and transferred into a 50 mL Schlenk flask containing C-3 (33.9 mg, 40.8 μmol). The resulting mixture was diluted with 25.2 mL of isododecane to give a bright orange solution. Final concentration: 70 gTOT/L and 0.686 gmetallocene/L.
