Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
A mixture of 500 mL (2) and 0.001 mol (1) was equilibrated in an Erlenmeyer flask for 12 h (agitation) + 24 h (stationary). The saturated solution, 100 mL, was extracted with hexane, concentrated by evaporation under nitrogen and analyzed by glc. A 5700 A Hewlett-Packard instrument equipped with dual compensating columns and flame ionization detectors was employed.
Source and Purity of Materials:
- source not specified; analytical grade; used as received; no impurities by glc.
- doubly distilled; free of trace organics.
