40. It should be noted that if a routine aqueous extractive workup were employed, a heavy emulsion would often form due to the formation of insoluble Cu complex, which could result in product loss. The use of aqueous HCl or EDTA/NaOH solution, for non-basic and basic substrates, respectively, significantly alleviates and often eliminates this problem.
