Purification Methods

Inorganic pKEst~0 salts and some coloured species can be removed by dissolving the crude material in the minimum volume of water and precipitating by adding EtOH. The purified reagent can be obtained by careful evaporation of the filtrate. Recrystallise it from EtOH and dry it in a vacuum at room temperature in the dark. [Lorenzo et al.
