Abstract

► A direct spectrophotometric titration of water in glacial acetic acid based on the sulfuric acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of acetic anhydride has been applied to the determination of water in the concentration range 0.009 to 1.7%. The relative merits of sulfuric and perchloric acids as catalysts and the mechanism of the catalysis are discussed.
