Ferric acetates chlorid

Reactions.—Add a few drops of alcohol to the same quantity of apetic acid, and an equal volume of concentrated sulphuric acid. Warm gently and notice the fruity smell of ethyl acetate. Neutralise a few drops of acetic acid by adding e.xcess of ammonia and boiling until neutral. Let cool and add a drop of ferric chloride. The red colour of ferric acetate is produced On boiling, basic ferric acetate is precipitated.

Ferric orthoarsenite cannot be prepared directly from ferric hydroxide and arsenious oxide.4 The brown product obtained by shaking freshly precipitated ferric hydroxide with an aqueous solution of arsenious oxide has been described 5 as a basic ferric arsenite of composition 4Fe203.As203.5H20. A similar substance is obtained by adding aqueous arsenious oxide or sodium arsenite to ferric acetate solution. If ferric chloride, sulphate or nitrate is used, the ferric salt is not completely precipitated. The product is oxidised in moist air, and decomposes when heated. It is very doubtful whether this is a chemical individual, however, for it has been shown that the removal of arsenious oxide from the solution by the ferric hydroxide is due to adsorption, the amount removed depending upon the conditions and the age of the adsorbent. This subject is discussed more fully on p. 154.

Many salts have the power of precipitating albuminoid substances from solution. The nature of the precipitate differs radically according to the salt used. In certain cases, the precipitate obtained is a metallo-organic compound, produced by a combination of salts with albuminoid substance. This is the case with ferric acetate, neutral or basic lead acetate, copper sulphate, and mercuric chloride. With other salts, such, for example, as with ammonium sulphate, zinc sulphate, potassium acetate, sodium sulphate and chloride, the precipitate is of another nature. The albuminoids precipitated have under-...

The alkylidene dimethone (dimedone) (I) upon boiling with glacial acetic acid, acetic anhydride, hydrochloric acid and other reagents frequently loses water and passes into a substituted octahydroxanthene or the anhydride (II), which often serves as another derivative. The derivatives (I) are soluble in dilute alkali and the resulting solutions give colourations with ferric chloride solution on the other hand, the anhydrides (II) are insoluble in dilute alkali and hence can easily be distinguished from the alkylidene dimedones (I). 

Other acetyl chloride preparations include the reaction of acetic acid and chlorinated ethylenes in the presence of ferric chloride [7705-08-0] (29) a combination of ben2yl chloride [100-44-7] and acetic acid at 85% yield (30) conversion of ethyUdene dichloride, in 91% yield (31) and decomposition of ethyl acetate [141-78-6] by the action of phosgene [75-44-5] producing also ethyl chloride [75-00-3] (32). The expense of raw material and capital cost of plant probably make this last route prohibitive. Chlorination of acetic acid to monochloroacetic acid [79-11-8] also generates acetyl chloride as a by-product (33). Because acetyl chloride is cosdy to recover, it is usually recycled to be converted into monochloroacetic acid. A salvage method in which the mixture of HCl and acetyl chloride is scmbbed with H2SO4 to form acetyl sulfate has been patented (33). 

Physical Properties. Sulfuryl chloride [7791-25-5] SO2CI2, is a colorless to light yellow Hquid with a pungent odor. Physical and thermodynamic properties are Hsted ia Table 7. Sulfuryl chloride dissolves sulfur dioxide, bromine, iodine, and ferric chloride. Various quaternary alkyl ammonium salts dissolve ia sulfuryl chloride to produce highly conductive solutions. Sulfuryl chloride is miscible with acetic acid and ether but not with hexane (193,194). 

Identification. When a solution of ferric chloride is added to a cold, saturated vanillin solution, a blue color appears that changes to brown upon warming to 20°C for a few minutes. On cooling, a white to off-white precipitate (dehydrodivanillin) of silky needles is formed. Vanillin can also be identified by the white to slightly yellow precipitate formed by the addition of lead acetate to a cold aqueous solution of vanillin. 

Hydrolysis. 1,1,1-Trichloroethane heated with water at 75—160°C under pressure and in the presence of sulfuric acid or a metal chloride catalyst decomposes to acetyl chloride, acetic acid, or acetic anhydride (54). However, hydrolysis under normal use conditions proceeds slowly. The hydrolysis is 100—1000 times faster with trichloroethane dissolved in the water phase than vice versa.

Benzal chloride is hydrolyzed to benzaldehyde under both acid and alkaline conditions. Typical conditions include reaction with steam in the presence of ferric chloride or a zinc phosphate catalyst (22) and reaction at 100°C with water containing an organic amine (23). Cinnamic acid in low yield is formed by heating benzal chloride and potassium acetate with an amine as catalyst (24). 

Aromatic Ring Reactions. In the presence of an iodine catalyst chlorination of benzyl chloride yields a mixture consisting mostly of the ortho and para compounds. With strong Lewis acid catalysts such as ferric chloride, chlorination is accompanied by self-condensation. Nitration of benzyl chloride with nitric acid in acetic anhydride gives an isomeric mixture containing about 33% ortho, 15% meta, and 52% para isomers (27) with benzal chloride, a mixture containing 23% ortho, 34% meta, and 43% para nitrobenzal chlorides is obtained. 

However, this method is appHed only when esterification cannot be effected by the usual acid—alcohol reaction because of the higher cost of the anhydrides. The production of cellulose acetate (see Fibers, cellulose esters), phenyl acetate (used in acetaminophen production), and aspirin (acetylsahcyhc acid) (see Salicylic acid) are examples of the large-scale use of acetic anhydride. The speed of acylation is greatiy increased by the use of catalysts (68) such as sulfuric acid, perchloric acid, trifluoroacetic acid, phosphoms pentoxide, 2inc chloride, ferric chloride, sodium acetate, and tertiary amines, eg, 4-dimethylaminopyridine. 

Reactions.—i. Make a neutral solution of ammonium benzoate by adding excess of ammonia to benzoic acid and boiling until neutial. To different poitionsadd solutions of calcium chloi ide, ferric chloride, silver nitrate and lead acetate and note the results.
