Limitations
• p-Nitrophenol (0.01 mol) is added portions wise at 0°C to the stirred slurry of active titanium
reagent.
• The reaction mixture is stirred for 15 min. at room temperature and then decomposed with water (50
ml) and 25% ammonia solution (50 mL). The mixture is extracted with ether (5 x 50 mL) or
continuously with chloroform, the organic layer is dried with magnesium sulfate and evaporated.
