The Zeisel determination or Zeisel test is a chemical test for the presence of esters or ethers in a chemical substance.[1][2][3][4] It is named after the Czech chemist Simon Zeisel (1854–1933). In a qualitative test a sample is first reacted with a mixture of acetic acid and hydrogen iodide in a test tube. The ensuing reaction results in the cleavage of the ether or the ester into an alkyl iodide and respectively an alcohol or a carboxylic acid.

By heating this mixture, the gases are allowed to come into contact with a piece of paper higher up the test tube saturated with silver(II) nitrate. Any alkyl iodide present will give a reaction with the mercury compound to silver (II) iodide which has a red or yellow color.

The reaction can also be used to determine the number of methoxy (-OCH3) groups,[5] by distilling the iodomethane into a solution of silver nitrate, which precipitates silver iodide. By filtering and weighing this precipitate it is possible to calculate the number of iodine atoms and hence methoxy groups.
