Magnesium sulfate solubility

Common impurities found in aldehydes are the corresponding alcohols, aldols and water from selfcondensation, and the corresponding acids formed by autoxidation. Acids can be removed by shaking with aqueous 10% sodium bicarbonate solution. The organic liquid is then washed with water. It is dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate or magnesium sulfate and then fractionally distilled. Water soluble aldehydes must be dissolved in a suitable solvent such as diethyl ether before being washed in this way. Further purification can be effected via the bisulfite derivative (see pp. 57 and 59) or the Schiff base formed with aniline or benzidine. Solid aldehydes can be dissolved in diethyl ether and purified as above. Alternatively, they can be steam distilled, then sublimed and crystallised from toluene or petroleum ether.

In a one-liter separatory funnel, 94 g (0.215 mol) of scopolamine hydrobromide trihydrate was dissolved in 250 ml of water, made alkaline by shaking with 40 g (1 mol) of sodium hydroxide in 150 ml of water, and the free base immediately extracted with ether. As scopolamine is somewhat soluble in water, the aqueous layer was saturated with potassium carbonate and again extracted with ether. The combined ether extracts were dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and the ether removed by distillation, leaving 65 g (0.214 mol 100% yield) of nearly colorless oil. Then 100 g (1.05 mols) of cold methyl bromide was added to a chilled, 500-ml pressure flask containing the 65 g of scopolamine, the flask stoppered tightly with a clamp, and allowed to stand at room temperature for 96 hours. 

C. (E)- -Iodo-4 -phenyl-2-butene. In a 20-ml., round-bottomed flask are placed 2.0 g. (0.008 mole) of 2-(4/-phenyl-l -buten-3 -yl)thio-2-thiazoline, 5 ml. of methyl iodide [Methane, iodo-], and 2 ml. of di-methylformamidc. The resulting solution is heated at 75-80° for 2.5 hours under a nitrogen atmosphere (Note 13), cooled, and poured into 10 ml. of water. Extraction with three 12-ml. portions of ether separates the product from water-soluble by-products. The extracts are combined, washed with 8 ml. of 1% aqueous sodium thiosulfate and two 8-ml. portions of water, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and filtered to remove the drying agent. Removal of ether by distillation at 30° (100 mm.) leaves 1.5-1.7g. (74-82%) of ( )-l-iodo-4-phenyl-2-butene (Notes 14 and 15).

An oven-dried 100 ml flask with a side arm dosed with a septum is fitted with a magnetic stirring bar and a reflux condenser connected to a mercury bubbler. The flask is cooled to room temperature under nitrogen, charged with 4.36 g (0.025 mol) of adipic acid monoethyl ester followed by 12.5 ml of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran, and cooled to —18° by immersion in an ice-salt bath. Then 10.5 ml of 2.39 m (or 25 ml of 1 m) solution of borane in tetrahydrofuran (0.025 mol) is slowly added dropwise over a period of 19 minutes. The resulting clear reaction mixture is stirred well and the ice-salt bath is allowed to warm slowly to room temperature over a 16-hour period. The mixture is hydrolyzed with 15 ml of water at 0°. The aqueous phase is treated with 6 g of potassium carbonate (to decrease the solubility of the alcohol-ester in water), the tetrahydrofuran layer is separated and the aqueous layer is extracted three times with a total of 150 ml of ether. The combined ether extracts are washed with 30 ml of a saturated solution of sodium chloride, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and evaporated in vacuo to give 3.5 g (88%) of a colorless liquid which on distillation yields 2.98 g (75%) of ethyl 6-hydroxyhexanoate, b.p. 79°/0.7 mm. 

Anhydrous magnesium sulfate is a white crystalline sohd occurring in alpha form as orthorhomic crystals or as a heta form having triclinic structure density 1.507 and 1.502 g/cm for alpha- and heta-forms, respectively decomposes at 323°C very soluble in water moderately soluble in methanol (5.25g/100 mL at 15°C). 

In the laboratory, magnesium hydroxide may be prepared by double decomposition reactions by adding a soluble hydroxide to solutions of magnesium salts i.e., adding caustic soda solution to magnesium sulfate solution ... 

Prepare a little magnesium oleate by treating a solution of sodium oleate with magnesium sulfate. Carefully wash the precipitate free from soluble impurities and dry at about 110°. Suspend 1 g. of the dry salt in 100 cc. of benzene and provide the flask with a reflux condenser. Boil until solution is obtained. Possibly the product is a colloidal dispersion rather than a very perfect solution. It has been found that a very little sodium oleate mixed with the magnesium oleate rendered the emulsions more permanent. 

Approximately 98% of the potassium recovered in primary ore and natural brine refining operations is recovered as potassium chloride. The remaining 2% consists of potassium recovered from a variety of sources. Potassium produced from these sources occurs as potassium sulfate combined with magnesium sulfate. From a practical point of view, the basic raw material for all of the potassium compounds discussed in this article, except potassium tartrate, is potassium chloride. Physical properties of selected potassium compounds are listed in Table 3, solubilities in Table 4.

The chemical composition of the cooling water makeup supply used in the plant determines the choice of the cycles of concentration. Some of the important constituents that must be controlled in the tower are calcium, magnesium, silica, carbonate, bicarbonate and sulfate ions. Alkalinity levels are regulated by the addition of acid or alkali to achieve the desired pH. When adding H2S04 (sulfuric acid) for pH control, it should be assured that calcium sulfate solubility limits are not exceeded (see Chapter 8).
