Participants

Reaction Steps

the preparation of the complex was carried out by a procedure similar to (A) except that quantity of glacial acetic acid used in making up the initial zinc acetate dihydrate-hydrogen peroxide-acetic acid solution in water was only 21.0 parts by weight. The mixture was mechanically shaken for 30 min in a stoppered flask, whereupon a clear solution was obtained. The product was a white solid analyzing 22.5% peroxide, 65.5% zinc and 3.09% carbon. All the carbon was present as acetyl groups, as indicated by a measured acetyl content of 5.9%. The analyses correspond to a polymer of the formula
