pre-mixing the 02 wacker

[slick14]

does anyone know if it is best to mix the 02 wacker chems first then add the saferole or is it best to put them together all at the same time?

You need to premix the pdcl2  in the meoh first. It takes a little bit of time to disolve. Then add your cupric. Then safrole.

uh, the one that used o2, pdcl2 and cucl...

[Osmium]

Dissolve the PdCl2 AND CuCl2 together in the MeOH. It's faster that way.

[pupilage]

PdCl2 in MeOH for at least 8 hours before adding CuCl2 into the PdCl2 mixture. Then add the Olefin of choice.

[Osmium]

Nope.
