Silver lactate is an organic chemical compound, a salt of silver and lactic acid[1] with the formula CH3CH(OH)COOAg.[2][3] It forms light gray crystals.[4] A monohydrate (CH3CH(OH)COOAg•H2O) exists.
Synthesis
Silver lactate can be made by the reaction of silver carbonate with lactic acid.
Reactions
Silver lactate is a reagent for the precipitation of uric acid.[5]
The compound reacts with triphenylphosphine gold chloride in a mixed solvent of benzene and dichloromethane to obtain colorless triphenylphosphine gold lactate.[6]
The compound reacts with a tetraphosphine ligand, dppbpda, to obtain a coordination polymer [(dppbpda)Ag4(CH3CH(OH)COO)4]n.[7]
