Extract

One of the more common methods of analysis for 2,4–dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,–D) is the one using chromotropic acid as the color developing reagent (1). In this laboratory it was found that it was difficult to obtain relatively pure chromotropic acid or its disodium salt. As an approach to the preparation of a purer compound, several experiments were tried.
