Alternate use of acetone and hexane as crystallizing solvents permitted the isolation of the 17‐, 16‐, 15‐ and 13‐phenyl isomers of phenylsteaic acid and related compounds made by the Firedel‐Crafts reaction. The pure crystalline isomers were used as referebce compounds to correct the distribution curve based on alkyl aryl ketones formed by chromic acid oxidation.
