Properties. Anhydrous potassium fluoride [7789-23-3] is a white hygroscopic salt that forms two hydrates, KF -2H20 [13455-21-5] and KF 4H2O [34341 -58-7]. The tetrahydrate exists at temperatures below 17.7°C. The dihydrate is stable at room temperature and starts to lose water above 40°C. Temperatures on the order of 250—300°C are requited to remove the last few percent of water ia a reasonable period of time. Potassium fluoride does not pyrohydroly2e at temperatures as high as 1000°C (1). Chemical and physical properties of KF are summarized ia Table 1. 

Trisodium hexakiscyanoferrate [14217-21-17, Na2[Fe(CN) J, forms red hygroscopic crystals that are soluble in water. A monohydrate [13755-37-8] and a dihydrate [36249-31-7] are also known. The sodium salt is used for many of the same purposes as the potassium salt. 

The brown crystalline manganese(III) acetate dihydrate is of considerable commercial importance because it is often used as the source material for other trivalent manganese compounds. It can be made by oxidation of manganese(II) acetate using chlorine or potassium permanganate, or by reaction of manganese(II) nitrate and acetic anhydride. 

When exposed to ait, the sodium salts tend to take up moisture and form dihydrates. The alkah metal xanthates are soluble ia water, alcohols, the lower ketones, pyridine, and acetonitrile. They are not particularly soluble ia nonpolar solvents, eg, ether or ligroin. The solubiUties of a number of these salts are Hsted ia Table 4. Potassium isopropyl xanthate is soluble ia acetone to ca 6 wt %, whereas the corresponding methyl, ethyl, / -propyl, n-huty isobutyl, isoamyl, and benzyl [2720-79-8] xanthates are soluble to more than 10 wt % (12). The solubiUties of the commercially available xanthates ia water are plotted versus temperature ia Figure 1 (14). 

Potassium carbonate (anhydrous). Has a moderate efficiency and capacity, forming the dihydrate. Suitable for an initial drying of alcohols, bases, esters, ketones and nitriles by shaking with them, then filtering off. Also suitable for salting out water-soluble alcohols, amines and ketones. Unsuitable for acids, phenols, thiols and other acidic substances. 

Chlorooctane (14 9 g, 0 I mol), potassium fluoride dihydrate (47 g, 0 5 mol), hexadecyltributylphosphonium bromide (5 1 g, 0 01 mol), and water (30 mL) are mixed in an autoclave equipped with a magnetic stirrer and heated to 160 °C (bath temperature) for 7 h After this time gas-liquid chromatographic analysis (10% Carbowax 20M on Chromosorb) shows a 95% conversion to a mixture of 1-fluorooctane (82%), octenes (6%), and 1-octanol (7%) The organic layer is separated, washed with water, washed with concentrated sulfuric acid, washed once again with water, dried over calcium chloride, and distilled to give 10 g (77%) of ] -fluorooctane... 

Metal halide salts other than sodium iodide have been used sparsely to prepare halodeoxy sugars from sulfonate esters. Lithium chloride (107) and lithium bromide (33) have found limited application. Potassium fluoride (dihydrate) in absolute methanol has been used (51, 52) to introduce fluorine atoms in terminal positions of various D-glucose derivatives. The reaction is conducted in sealed tube systems and requires...
