I have used the kerosene as a solvent to remove the unreacted products from synthesized powder? The smell is coming from the powder after drying the powder at 373 K. Is there any possibility is there to remove the kerosene smell.
If you want to remove the residual kerosene from your powdered compound. Please dissolve the compound in a solvent in which compound is completely soluble. Then add an anti-solvent (like hexane or other) to get a ppt. Then filter and wash with suitable solvent. If you want to remove kerosene 100%, please go for recrystallization.
