Procedure
1.24 g (8.37 mol) of cinnamic acid and 0.37 g (8.37 mol) of sodium hydroxide are added to 120 ml of ion-exchange water while being stirred, to provide an aqueous solution of sodium cinnamate. The pH value of this aqueous solution is adjusted to 10 by the use of an aqueous solution of 0.1N sodium hydroxide.
