Abstract
Abstract Chlormerodrin [3-(chloromercurio)-2-methoxypropyl urea] and its decomposition product formed in aqueous solution have been examined by PMR spectroscopy, and the decomposition product shown to be 3-(chloromercurio)-2-hydroxypropyl urea. Factors influencing the decomposition of chlormerodrin solutions have been examined and chloride ions shown to reduce the rate of decomposition. The decomposition route has been examined using tracer techniques.
