Styrene - coppersalt complexes
The Ullmann writes that styrene can be separated/purified by complexing it with coppersalts.
Does anybody know which salts are usable and in special how the styrene is freed again?
Distillation of styrene under STP leads to bad losses from polymerisation, so this would be a nice method for pure styrene for those without a good
source of vacuum.
Any help welcome.

An equilibrium constant would be nice, so that we can compare it with other ligands.
But I'm pretty sure strong ligands like NH3 should displace it.
One shouldn't accept or resort to the mutilation of science to appease the mentally impaired.

Too bad, Ullmann gives no source to this statement.
I found an example, which you might think is too impracticable for clandestine chemists. Nevertheless it is probably worth to read the introduction in
the patent (TIFF-pictures). USPTO-Link.
Abstract
[color=darkgreen]Styrene (I) was purified by formation of a co.ovrddot.ordination compd. with CuCl (II). A 40% I-60% PhEt mixt. (400 g.) was cooled
to -15° and mixed with 100 g. II at the same temp. After 24 hrs. the ppt. was sucked dry and washed with pentane. The ppt. was then mixed with
pentane and the temp. raised to 35°. I was released and could be sepd. by distg. Lower straight chain alcohols are used as catalysts in the
absorption.[/color]

Oh! Thanks to all!
-15°C is in reach of my fridge I hope and decomposition by plain warming sounds ok.
I will give this a try first.
