Reaction Steps

N,N-dimethylaniline molybdate having a 2/1 molybdenum/N,N-dimethylaniline molar ratio was prepared in the presence of HCl as follows. 10 grams of N,N-dimethylaniline, 16.26 grams of a 37 wt.% aqueous HCl solution, and 250 ml water were dissolved together and heated to reflux in a 500 ml round-bottomed flask equipped with a water-cooled condenser. 28.05 grams of ammonium dimolybdate was dissolved in 52 ml hot water and then added to the first solution.
