Magnesium salt

Table 11.1 lists some of the reaction conditions which have given prepara-tively useful yields of 3-alkylation. Entries 1-3 are typical alkylations using a magnesium salt and an alkyl halide. Even 2,3-disubstituted indoles are alkylated at C3 under these conditions (Entry 7). Entry 5 represents a more recently developed method in which an allylic alcohol and indole react in the... 

Action of magnesium sulfate on the sodium salt of sulfathiazole gives its magnesium salt (681). 

We ve seen how Grignard reagents add to the carbonyl group of aldehydes ketones and esters Grignard reagents react m much the same way with carbon dioxide to yield mag nesium salts of carboxylic acids Acidification converts these magnesium salts to the desired carboxylic acids... 

The FD C certified colors are all water-soluble dyes, but can be transformed into insoluble pigments known as lakes by precipitating the dyes with alurninum, calcium, or magnesium salts on a substrate of aluminum hydroxide. The lakes are useful in appHcations that require color whereas in dry form, such as cake mixes, or where water may be present and bleeding is a problem, such as food packaging. FD C Red Lake No. 3 was deHsted in Febmary... 

The magnesia and alumina suspension is prepared by treatment of an aqueous solution, containing aluminum and magnesium salt in the desired proportion, with sodium hydroxide. The coprecipitated aluminum and magnesium hydroxides are collected by filtration, washed free of soluble salts, and stabilized by the addition of a suitable hexatol. 

Magnesium trisihcate is a nonsystemic antacid and an adsorbent. It has a slow onset of activity and is a relatively weak antacid. It may cause diarrhea in large doses owing to soluble magnesium salts. One gram of magnesium trisihcate neutralizes 10 mL of 0.1 NUCl in 10 min, and 15 mL in 2 h. 

Magaldrate is prepared by precipitation from aqueous solutions of sodium or potassium aluminate and a magnesium salt under controlled conditions of concentration and temperature. The precipitated product is collected by filtration, washed to remove soluble by-products, and dried. 

Magnesium sulfate heptahydrate may be prepared by neutralization of sulfuric acid with magnesium carbonate or oxide, or it can be obtained directly from natural sources. It occurs abundantly as a double salt and can also be obtained from the magnesium salts that occur in brines used for the extraction of bromine (qv). The brine is treated with calcium hydroxide to precipitate magnesium hydroxide. Sulfur dioxide and air are passed through the suspension to yield magnesium sulfate (see Chemicals frombrine). Magnesium sulfate is a saline cathartic. 

Gum ghatti is the calcium and magnesium salt of a complex polysaccharide which contains L-arabinose, D-galactose, D-mannose, and D-xylose and D-glucuronic acid (48) and has a molecular weight of approximately 12,000. On dispersion in water, gum ghatti forms viscous solutions of viscosity intermediate between those of gum arabic and gum karaya. These dispersions have emulsification and adhesive properties equivalent to or superior to those described for gum arabic. 

Miscellaneous. Both whiting and hydrated lime are used as diluents and carriers of pesticides, such as lime—sulfur sprays, Bordeaux, calcium arsenate, etc. The most widely used bleach and sterilizer, high test calcium hypochlorite, is made by interacting lime and chlorine (see Bleaching AGENTS). Calcium and magnesium salts, such as dicalcium phosphate, magnesium chloride, lithium salts, etc, are made directly from calcific and dolomitic lime and limestone. 

Detergents are metal salts of organic acids used primarily in crankcase lubricants. Alkylbenzenesulfonic acids, alkylphenols, sulfur- and methjiene-coupled alkyl phenols, carboxyUc acids, and alkylphosphonic acids are commonly used as their calcium, sodium, and magnesium salts. Calcium sulfonates, overbased with excess calcium hydroxide or calcium carbonate to neutralize acidic combustion and oxidation products, constitute 65% of the total detergent market. These are followed by calcium phenates at 31% (22). 

In seawater—dolime and hrine—dolime processes, calcined dolomite or dolime, CaO MgO, is used as a raw material (Table 9). Dolime typically contains 58% CaO, 41% MgO, and less than 1% combined Si02, P O, and CO2 where R is a trivalent metal ion, eg, Al " or Fe " ( 4). Roughly one-half of the magnesia is provided by the magnesium salts in the seawater or brine and the other half is from dolime (75). Plant size is thus reduced using dolime and production cost is probably lower. 

The second processing step, in which benzoic acid is oxidized and hydrolyzed to phenol, is carried out in two reactors in series. In the first reactor, the benzoic acid is oxidized to phenyl benzoate in the presence of air and a catalyst mixture of copper and magnesium salts. The reactor is operated at 234°C and 147 kPa gauge (1.5 kg/cm g uge). The phenyl benzoate is then hydrolyzed with steam in the second reactor to yield phenol and carbon dioxide. This occurs at 200°C and atmospheric pressure. The overall yield of phenol from benzoic acid is around 88 mol %. Figure 2 shows a simplified diagram for the toluene—benzoic acid process. 

CH2CH2) 0]2P(=0)—OH are formed from polyethoxylated nonylphenol. The magnesium salts of the ester mixture are soluble in organics and are used as dry-cleaning surfactants. 

JECEA reviewed the safety studies of glutamate and endorsed its safety by allocating an Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) for L-glutamic acid and its monosodium, potassium, ammonium, calcium, and magnesium salts as being "not specified." The scientific committee for food of EC concurred (40). 

Sulfonates for Lube Additives. Most petroleum sulfonates used as lube additives are based on calcium or magnesium salts. These salts can be produced by direct neutralization of the sulfonic acid with Ca(OH)2 or Mg(OH)2, or by use of a metathesis process involving the sodium salt ... 

Sulfonic acid salts have found widespread use in the area of corrosion inhibition. Lubrizol Corporation produces a wide variety of sulfonic acids, particularly in the form of magnesium salts, for use in lubricant formulations, anticorrosion coatings, greases, and resins (146,147). Petroleum sulfonates are used in epoxy resin elastomers to improve anticorrosion properties of coatings and sealants (qv) (148,149).
