Acetic Acid → HCID 20292403, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

19.5 g (0.029 mol) of the compound obtained in Step (c) above, reduced iron (5.3 g), triirontetraoxide (2.7 g) and ammonium chloride (0.4 g) were suspended in isopropanol (300 ml). To the mixture, a mixed solution of water (40 ml) and acetic acid (2 ml) was added dropwise while refluxing with heating. After the completion of the addition, the mixture was refluxed wih heating for 2 hours and the insoluble materials were removed by filtration while hot. The filtrate was added to water (300 ml) and the crystals thus-precipitated were collected by filtration. Yield: 16.4 g (86%). Melting Point: 110°-112° C.
