Abstract
SummaryThe solubilities of the myristates, laurates, palmitates, and stearates of magnesium, lead, calcium, barium, and zinc have been measured at 25° C. in chloroform and in propylene glycol and in their mixtures. Even where they are sparingly soluble in the solvents separately, they dissolve freely in mixtures of the two.For each metal the solubility is greatest for laurate and least for stearate and it is very low for zinc soaps, particularly zinc stearate.Heavy metal soaps may be directly titrated with acid in mixtures of propylene glycol and chloroform using thymol blue as indicator (yellow to pink).
