Our procedure for a catalytic hydrogenation of 4-cyclohexene-cis-1,2-dicarboxylic acid (mol.wt.=170.16g/mol) says to scale up the water and necessary reagents if we use more than 0.5g of it. If I am to use 1.0g of it, how much water, chloroplatinic acid, decolorizing carbon, sodium borohydride and HCl do I use? I'm really just having trouble figuring out the equation for scaling up. The original amounts for the reagents with 0.5g of starting material (4-cyclohexene...) was 5mL water, 0.2g decolorizing carbon. 1.5mL of 1M sodium borohydride, 0.5mL of 5%chloroplatinic acid, and 2mL concentrated HCl. An equation for scaling up and an example with the water reagent would be the most helpful.
