Separation of the 3,5-Dinitrobenzoates of Volatile Alcohols by Paper Chromatography

Abstract

FEW methods for the separation of derivatives of volatile alcohols by paper chromatography have been reported. Rice, Keller and Kirchner1 have separated a number of 3,5-dinitrobenzoates by using various solvent systems and filter papers. They quote no RF values, however. Kariyone, Hashimoto and Kimura2 have separated the potassium xanthogenates of a number of alcohols, using alkaline butanol as solvent.
