Acetic anhydride was the other chemical identified for special attention.

Acetic anhydride dissolves in water to approximately 2.6% by weight.

It is reduced to 4-aminophenol, then acetylated with acetic anhydride.

Due to its low cost, acetic anhydride is purchased, not prepared, for use in research laboratories.

It was there that the 12 tons of acetic anhydride was found.

The low cost, however, of acetic anhydride makes it a common choice for acetylation reactions.

No major seizures of acetic anhydride have been made in Pakistan since 1998.

Acetic anhydride is also a reagent for the production of heroin and other compounds.

Treatment with acetic anhydride yielded 133 in quantitative yield.

Another way that it can be produced is by reacting phenol with acetic anhydride.

Acetic anhydride being corrosive to iron and steel requires special reaction equipment.

Chemical modification of model compounds, wood flour and fibre with acetic anhydride.

These organizations raised specific concerns about potassium permanganate and acetic anhydride.

Similarly, heroin-producing countries depend on supplies of acetic anhydride from the international market.

This is then converted to the quinazolone (4) by heating with acetic anhydride.

To date, this is the largest known acetic anhydride seizure in Turkey.

In 2011, the United States joined with other nations to focus on acetic anhydride.

The remaining unreacted amino groups are capped with acetic anhydride.

Elsewhere, other countries and regional organizations are stepping up efforts to target acetic anhydride.

The Liebermann-Burchard or acetic anhydride test is used for the detection of cholesterol.

This dihydrate can be dehydrated to anhydrous using acetic anhydride.

Dicarboxylic acids are converted to the anhydrides upon treatment with acetic anhydride.

The amino groups are then acetylated during the same step using acetic anhydride as the solvent.

The compound may also be prepared by treating cadmium nitrate with acetic anhydride.

Another method, the oxidation of acetic anhydride by peroxides, is conceptually similar.

Acetic anhydride, or ethanoic anhydride, is the chemical compound with the formula (CHCO)O. Commonly abbreviated AcO, it is the simplest isolable anhydride of a carboxylic acid and is widely used as a reagent in organic synthesis.
