Phenylmercuric Acetate USP NF Grade Specifications
C8H8HgO2 336.74
Mercury, (acetato-O)phenyl-.
(Acetato)phenylmercury CAS 62-38-4
Phenylmercuric Acetate contains not less than 98.0 percent and not more than 100.5 percent of C8H8HgO2.
Identification:
A: Add 0.5 mL of nitric acid to 0.1 g of it, warm gently until a dark brown color is produced, and dilute with water to 10 mL: the characteristic odor of nitrobenzene is evolved.
B: To 0.1 g of it add 0.5 mL of sulfuric acid and 1 mL of alcohol, and warm: the characteristic odor of ethyl acetate is evolved.
C: To 5 mL of a saturated solution in water add a few drops of sodium sulfide: a white precipitate is formed, which turns black when the mixture is boiled and then allowed to stand.
Melting range: between 149 and 153 .
Residue on ignition: not more than 0.2%.
Mercuric salts and Heavy metals: Heat about 100 mg with 15 mL of water, cool, and filter. To the filtrate add a few drops of sodium sulfide: the resulting precipitate shows no immediate color.
Polymercurated benzene compounds: Shake 2.0 g with 100 mL of acetone, and filter. Wash the residue with successive portions of acetone until a total of 50 mL is used, then dry the residue at 105C for 1 hour, and weigh: the weight of the residue does not exceed 30 mg (1.5%).
