Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

6.0 mL of a 100 mM solution of KOH was titrated into a dispersed solution of octadecylphosphonic acid (100 mg, 0.3 mmol) in 30 mL of water while stirring. The mixture was then heated to 60° C. while stirring until the water was evaporated (about 3 hours). The resulting white solid was then dried under vacuum.
