Copper(II) lactate, also referred to as cupric lactate, is the chemical compound with the formula Cu(C3H5O3)2. It is a green powder that readily dissolves in hot water to form a green solution, often more blue than the acetate.
Preparation
Copper(II) lactate can be prepared by heating copper(II) oxide with lactic acid.[citation needed] The reaction does not usually go to completion, and excess reactants must be removed from the product.[citation needed]
