Chemical hazards with reactive halides

A very reactive form of a finely divided metal is a so-called Rieke powder [79]. These materials are produced as fine powders by chemical precipitation during the reduction of various metal halides ivith potassium metal in refluxing tetrahydrofuran. Obviously this is a potentially hazardous laboratory procedure and ultrasound has provided an alternative method of preparation of these extremely valuable reagents [80]. The sonochemical technique involves the reduction of metal halides with lithium in TH F at room temperature in a cleaning bath and gives rise to metal powders that have reactivities comparable to those of Rieke powders. Thus powders of Zn, Mg, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pd, Co and Pb were obtained in less than 40 min by this ultrasonic method compared with reaction times of 8 h using the experimentally more difScult Rieke method (Tab. 3.1). [Pg.95]
