SODIUM 2,4-PENTANEDIONATE synthesis

Yield:-

Reaction Conditions:

with water;sodium t-butanolate in isopropyl alcohol at 50;

Steps:

2.1.1. K₂(acac)₂(H₂O) (I) and Na(acac)(H₂O) (III)
General procedure: A solution of Hacac (2 mmol, 0.200 g) in iso-propanol (2 ml) was added to MOtBu (2 mmol, 0.192 or 0.224 g for M = Na or K) dissolved in iso-propanol (8 ml) under continuous stirring at 50 °C.The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and the colorlessc rystalline precipitate that formed was isolated by filtration and dried in a vacuum. Yield: 80-90%. All operations were carried out in air. X-ray quality single crystals were grown by slow recrystallization from iso-propanol.
