Dear fellows,

We are conducting routine practicals to a Graduate class-students for a limited time period. we face two problems while carrying out Clemmensen reduction of Acetophenone:

1. Dissolution of Zn requires about 6 hours

2. Overnight time is required for the development of two distinct layers

Would anyone please guide us how the time period for both the processes could be cut down to three hours

Sincerely yours,

H.L. Siddiqui etl
