White crystalline solid prismatic crystal faint odor of ammonia stable at ambient temperature but decomposes on heating at 60°C melts at 107.5°C on very rapid heating density 1.586 g/cm vapor pressure 435 torr at 25°C readily dissolves in water (21.6g/100g at 20°C, and 36.6g/100g at 40°C). 

Nitrogen Ligands. Iron(II) halides and other salts absorb NH3 in excess giving the [Fe(NH3)6]2+ anion but ammonia complexes are stable only in saturated excess ammonia. Stable complexes with chelating amines are formed, for example, for ethylenediamine ... 

The alkali amides are stable, crystalline salts the heavy metal amides are often explosive. The amides are the bases of the ammonia system. 

It is manufactured by heating dicyandiamide, H2N C(NH) NH CN, either alone or in the presence of ammonia or other alkalis, in various organic solvents. Melamine is an important material in the plastics industry. Condensed with melhanal and other substances it gives thermosetting resins that are remarkably stable to heat and light. U.S. production 1980 80 000 tonnes. 

Osmiamates, e.g. K.OSO3N (K20s04(0H)2 plus ammonia) are stable and related species, e.g. [Os NC ], can be formed by substitution. 

Both these molecules exist in the gaseous state and both are trigonal planar as indicated by reference to Table 2.8. However, in each, a further covalent bond can be formed, in which both electrons of the shared pair are provided by one atom, not one from each as in normal covalent bonding. For example, monomeric aluminium chloride and ammonia form a stable compound ... 

Towards a simple Lewis base, for example the proton, phosphine is a poorer electron donor than ammonia, the larger phosphorus atom being less able to form a stable covalent bond with the acceptor atom or molecule. Phosphine is, therefore, a much weaker base than ammonia and there is no series of phosphonium salts corresponding to the ammonium salts but phosphonium halides. PH4X (X = Cl, Br, I) can be prepared by the direct combination of phosphine with the appropriate hydrogen halide. These compounds are much more easily dissociated than ammonium halides, the most stable being the iodide, but even this dissociates at 333 K PH4I = PH3 -t- HI... 

The thiocyanate ion SCN forms an intensely red-coloured complex (most simply represented as [Fe(SCN)(H20)5] ) which is a test for iron(III). However, unlike cobalt(III), iron(lll) does not form stable hexammines in aqueous solution, although salts containing the ion [FefNHj) ] can be obtained by dissolving anhydrous iron(III) salts in liquid ammonia. 

Phenylhydrazine on exposure to light slowly darkens and eventually becomes deep red in colour salts of the base share this property but to a lesser degree, the sulphate and acetate (of the common salts) being most stable to light. Phenylhydrazine is largely used in organic chemistry to characterise aldehydes and ketones as their phenyl-hydrazones (pp. 342, 345), and carbohydrates as their osazones (pp. 136-140). It is readily reduced thus in the process of osazone formation some of the phenylhydrazine is reduced to aniline and ammonia. On the... 

The last isomerization is remarkable in that the triple bond can shift through a long carbon chain to the terminus, where it is fixed as the (kinetically) stable acetylide. The reagent is a solution of potassium diami no-propyl amide in 1,3-di-aminopropane. In some cases alkali metal amides in liquid ammonia car also bring about "contra-thermodynamic" isomerizations the reactions are successful only if the triple bond is in the 2-position. 

The Birch reductions of C C double bonds with alkali metals in liquid ammonia or amines obey other rules than do the catalytic hydrogenations (D. Caine, 1976). In these reactions regio- and stereoselectivities are mainly determined by the stabilities of the intermediate carbanions. If one reduces, for example, the a, -unsaturated decalone below with lithium, a dianion is formed, whereof three different conformations (A), (B), and (C) are conceivable. Conformation (A) is the most stable, because repulsion disfavors the cis-decalin system (B) and in (C) the conjugation of the dianion is interrupted. Thus, protonation yields the trans-decalone system (G. Stork, 1964B). 

The benzyl group has been widely used for the protection of hydroxyl functions in carbohydrate and nucleotide chemistry (C.M. McCloskey, 1957 C.B. Reese, 1965 B.E. Griffin, 1966). A common benzylation procedure involves heating with neat benzyl chloride and strong bases. A milder procedure is the reaction in DMF solution at room temperatiue with the aid of silver oxide (E. Reinefeld, 1971). Benzyl ethers are not affected by hydroxides and are stable towards oxidants (e.g. periodate, lead tetraacetate), LiAIH, amd weak acids. They are, however, readily cleaved in neutral solution at room temperature by palladium-catalyzed bydrogenolysis (S. Tejima, 1963) or by sodium in liquid ammonia or alcohols (E.J. Rcist, 1964). 

The effect on the solubility of AgCl of adding AgNOa is obviousA but what is the effect of adding a ligand that forms a stable, soluble complex with Ag+ Ammonia, for example, reacts with Ag+ as follows... 

Acetamide [60-35-5] C2H NO, mol wt 59.07, is a white, odorless, hygroscopic soHd derived from acetic acid and ammonia. The stable crystalline habit is trigonal the metastable is orthorhombic. The melt is a solvent for organic substances it is used ia electrochemistry and organic synthesis. Pure acetamide has a bitter taste. Unknown impurities, possibly derived from acetonitrile, cause its mousy odor (1). It is found ia coal mine waste dumps (2). 

Ammonia—Gas-Cured Flame Retardants. The first flame-retardant process based on curing with ammonia gas, ie, THPC—amide—NH, consisted of padding cotton with a solution containing THPC, TMM, and urea. The fabric was dried and then cured with either gaseous ammonia or ammonium hydroxide (96). There was Httle or no reaction with cellulose. A very stable polymer was deposited in situ in the cellulose matrix. Because the fire-retardant finish did not actually react with the cellulose matrix, there was generally Httle loss in fabric strength. However, the finish was very effective and quite durable to laundering. 

Ammonium fluoride is a white, deflquescent, crystalline salt. It tends to lose ammonia gas to revert to the more stable ammonium bifluoride. Its solubiUty in water is 45.3 g/100 g of H2O at 25°C and its heat of formation is —466.9 kJ/mol ( — 116 kcal/mol). Ammonium fluoride is available principally as a laboratory reagent. If it is needed in large quantities, one mole of aqueous ammonia can be mixed with one mole of the more readily available ammonium bifluoride (1). 

Boron trifluoride catalyst may be recovered by distillation, chemical reactions, or a combination of these methods. Ammonia or amines are frequently added to the spent catalyst to form stable coordination compounds that can be separated from the reaction products. Subsequent treatment with sulfuric acid releases boron trifluoride. An organic compound may be added that forms an adduct more stable than that formed by the desired product and boron trifluoride. In another procedure, a fluoride is added to the reaction products to precipitate the boron trifluoride which is then released by heating. Selective solvents may also be employed in recovery procedures (see Catalysts,regeneration). 

TiF is a colorless, very hygroscopic soHd and is classified as a soft fluorinating reagent (4), fluorinating chlorosilanes to fluorosilanes at 100°C. It also forms adducts, some of them quite stable, with ammonia, pyridine, and ethanol. TiF sublimes at 285.5°C, and melts at temperatures >400° C. It is soluble in water, alcohol, and pyridine, hydroly2ing in the former, and has a density of 2.79 g/mL.
