solvents
« on: November 15, 2014, 05:11:02 AM »
Hi,

I would like to ask, where to find information which solvent to use for recrystalization of a compound? Is there any database on that kind of information?

Thanks

You need solvent that dissolves the impurities but not your product. I dont know such database so you might need to try some solvents

The CRC is a good place to strt, or even Wikipedia.  But again, this only tells yo what components are or aren't soluble in.  Like kriggy: said, its up to you to decide what to sue.
