Copper(I) acetate (cuprous acetate) is an organic coppersalt of acetic acid with chemical formulaCH3COOCu.
Under standard conditions, copper(I) acetate is an air-sensitive colorless white solid.
Copper(I) acetate is produced by the reaction ofcopper metal andcopper(II) acetate inacetonitrile.[2]
Copper(I) acetate is used as a catalyst for the oxidation ofphenols.
