Dear,
I'm doing a reaction where there is sodium chloride formed in dichloromethane.
To increase the yield of my reaction I want to use other (and greener) solvents.
I went to the library to search some exact numbers of the solubilities of sodium chloride in common organic solvents.
There I found some exact solubilities, but I never found the exact number for the solubility of sodium chloride in Toluene.
I know that the exact number will be very low because toluene isn't polar and can therefore not form a solvent cage to capture the ions that can compete against the cristal interactions. But yet I would like to know an exact number?
Can somebody help my?
And does somebody know the exact number for the solubility of sodium chloride in DCM, I also didn't found it.
Thanks in advance
