I'm trying to get a hold of Ethylene, but because of it's properties it's not sold commercially, so I'm trying to find a way to synthesize it.
The closest thing I can find to synthesize it is Ethylene glycol
I'm pretty sure I could add Na as so
C2H6O2 + 2Na → 2(CH2) + 2(NaOH)
The problem is then how to remove the sodium hydroxide from solution without further reactions effecting the Ethylene.
