Newer acylation methods for the determination of organic hydroxyl and amino compounds.
A critical review of certain acylation methods for the determination of organic hydroxyl and amino compounds is presented. Esterification methods developed after 1955, involving seven anhydrides and five acid chlorides, are discussed. A brief survey is given of acid-catalysed acetylation and of colorimetric methods based on the esterification reactions.
