Abstract
The copper salts of many organic carboxylic acids are soluble in alcohol (see Beilstein). It has now been found that although a few are soluble in benzene, for example, copper hydrocinnamate, many which are insoluble in benzene will dissolve readily on addition of a few drops of alcohol; for example, copper phenylacetate, diphenylacetate, o-toluate.
