Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of iron powder (1.24 g, 22 mmol) and sodium chloride (1.24 g, 21 mmol) in 50% aqueous ethanol (25 ml) was heated under reflux for 15 minutes. A solution of crude (g) (0.92 g, 3.6 mmol) in ethanol (5 ml) was then added quickly and the reaction mixture was heated under reflux for 2 hours. The mixture was filtered through keiselguhr and the solution was evaporated to dryness. The residue was dissolved in water and acidified to pH5 with 1M aqueous hydrochloric acid. The precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with water, then dried to give a white solid (0.35 g, 46%).
