[edit]Things to include: Since this page is linked to from the "nitration" page, perhaps there should be at least some mention of its activity towards nitration. 128.211.220.163 (talk) 16:47, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
Tags
[edit]I've tagged it because it doesn't quite fit with paracetamol#History which is well sourced. I'll fix it later if nobody else does. Xasodfuih (talk) 01:12, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

traditional experiment in introductory organic chemistry lab
[edit]The article says that "The preparation used to be a traditional experiment in introductory organic chemistry lab classes,[6] but it has now been widely replaced"

Dosage and dangers
[edit]Would someone add dosages that it was used in the past? Also, some people orally ingest Hydrogen Peroxide for supposed health benefits and Acetanilide is being used as a stabilizer - we should include some information about it and possible dangers. Dmatteng (talk) 11:20, 18 July 2014 (UTC)
- Wikipedia doesn't exist to prevent morons from being morons. All they'd do is read about it and decide that wikipedia was "too mainstream" and go on believing whatever stupid clickbait youtube (the irony is so thick you'd need a few MW of fiber laser to cut it) channel they got the idea of chugging peroxide from.
