Procedure
Magnesium nonylphenoxide was prepared by reacting magnesium turnings (52 grams) with methanol (100 grams) in a three-liter three-neck flask fitted with stirrer, condenser, thermometer and nitrogen inlet. Magnesium turnings were added in 5-gram portions every 10 minutes and the exothermio reaction was controlled at 35° to 45° C. with the aid of an ice water bath. When all the magnesium was reacted, nonylphenol (880 grams) was added. The resulting solution contained 2.7% soluble magnesium according to atomic absorption analysis.
