Lithium ferrocyanide

Lithium cuproferrocyanide,2 Li2Cu2Fe(CN)6, is obtained by boiling cuprous cyanide with a solution of lithium ferrocyanide containing lithium sulphite, hydrogen gas being simultaneously bubbled through the solution. It crystallises in colourless, hexagonal prisms. 

Lithium ferrocyanide, Li4Fe(CN)6.9H20, yields deliquescent monoclinic crystals. 

H. Stamm also measured the solubilities of the salts of the alkalies in liquid ammonia —potassium hydroxide, nitrate, sulphate, chromate, oxalate, perchlorate, persulphate, chloride, bromide, iodide, carbonate, and chlorate rubidium chloride, bromide, and sulphate esesium chloride, iodide, carbonate, and sulphate lithium chloride and sulphate sodium phosphate, phosphite, hypophosphite, fluoride, chloride, iodide, bromate, perchlorate, periodate, hyponitrire, nitrite, nitrate, azide, dithionate, chromate, carbonate, oxalate, benzoate, phtnalate, isophthalate ammonium, chloride, chlorate, bromide, iodide, perchlorate, sulphate, sulphite, chromate, molybdate, nitrate, dithionate, thiosulphate, persulphate, thiocyanate, phosphate, phosphite, hypophosphite, arsenate, arsenite, amidosulphonate, ferrocyanide, carbonate, benzoate, methionate, phenylacetate, picrate, salicylate, phenylpropionate, benzoldisulphonate, benzolsulphonate, phthalate, trimesmate, mellitate, aliphatic dicarboxylates, tartrate, fumarate, and maleinate and phenol. 

The names sodium borohydride and lithium aluminum hydride (8) are not constructed on any established nomenclature pattern unless it be rapidly disappearing one represented by sodium silicofluoride and potassium ferrocyanide.
