1-Propanol → Magnesium dipropanolate

112 g of magnesium turnings and 3 000 g of propan-1-ol are initially introduced into a 10 l steel autoclave. Reaction is performed for a total of 5 hours at 188° C. and a pressure of 38 bar. Then n-propanol is removed by distillation at a temperature of 80° C. and a pressure of about 50 mbar. The alkoxide is then dried at 80° C. and a pressure of <1 mbar. The product still contains a proportion of metallic magnesium amounting to 0.04 wt. %.
