Al halides

[humidbeing]

Will an excess of I2 in solution when making HgI2, and the
subsequent formation of Al halides affect the MM Al/Hg
reaction?
   Also, xylene may be substituted for all Extractions?
   (allowing to skip filtration in oxone epox, etc..)
Thanx busy ones.

CG I miss you sweety, I really do.
