Purification Methods

Purify it by repeated fractional distillation.[Cowley J Org Chem 23 1330 1958, Reppe et al. Justus Liebigs Ann Chem 596 198 1955, IR: Huisgen et al. Chem Ber 90 1437 1957.] The hydrochloride has m 183-184o (from isoPrOH or EtOH/Et2O) [Hurd et al. J Org Chem 17 865 1952], and the oxime has m 122.5o (from pet ether) [Behringer & Meier Justus Liebigs Ann Chem 607 67 1957]. The picrate has m 92-93o.
