Aluminum chloride forms double salts of relatively low melting point (e.g., 140-300°) with a large number of metallic chlorides. The use of such addition compounds with equimolar quantities of sodium chloride, lithium chloride, ammonium chloride, or potassium chloride as catalysts for the alkylation of isobutane with ethylene, propene, or isobutylene has been described (Blunck and Carmody, 35). Temperatures of at least 150° at pressures of about 1000 p.s.i. were found to be necessary for alkylation when a mixture of isobutane and the olefin was passed, at a space velocity of 1-5 cc./cc. catalyst/hour, over the double salt deposited on pumice. The activity of the double salts decreased in the order mentioned, the potassium chloride compound being quite inactive but yielding some polymerization product at 316°. 

Calcium hypochlorite is the principal commercial soHd hypochlorite it is produced on a large scale and marketed as a 65—70% product containing sodium chloride and water as the main diluents. A product with a significantly higher available chlorine, av CI2, (75—80%) has been introduced by Olin. Calcium hypochlorite is also manufactured to a smaller extent as a hemibasic compound (- 60% av Cl ) and to a lesser extent in the form of bleaching powder (- 35% av CI2). Lithium hypochlorite is produced on a small scale and is sold as a 35% assay product for specialty appHcations. Small amounts of NaOCl ate employed in the manufacture of crystalline chlorinated ttisodium phosphate [56802-99-4]. 

Lithium. Several processes for lithium [7439-93-2], Li, metal production have been developed. The Downs cell with LiCl—KCl electrolyte produces lithium ia much the same manner as sodium is produced. Lithium metal or lithium—aluminum alloy can be produced from a mixture of fused chloride salts (108). Granular Li metal has been produced electrochemically from lithium salts ia organic solvents (109) (see LiTHlUM AND LITHIUM compounds).

When hot, ammonia and compounds, which contain nitrogen-hydrogen bonds eg ammonium salts and cyanides react violently with chlorates and alkaline perchlorates. Diammonlum sulphate, ammonium chloride, hydroxyl-amine, hydrazine, sodamide, sodium cyanide and ammonium thiocyanate have been cited. So far as hydrazine is concerned, the danger comes from the formation of a complex with sodium or lithium perchlorate, which is explosive when ground. Many of these interactions are explosive but the factors which determine the seriousness of the accident are not known.

Sodium chloride and lithium chloride are typical ionic compounds, while sugar represents a typical nonionic compound. In general, how do these two types of compounds compare in their melting points ... 

The activity of transition metal allyl compounds for the polymerization of vinyl monomers has been studied by Ballard, Janes, and Medinger (10) and their results are summarized in Table II. Monomers that polymerize readily with anionic initiators, such as sodium or lithium alkyls, polymerize vigorously with allyl compounds typical of these are acrylonitrile, methyl methacrylate, and the diene isoprene. Vinyl acetate, vinyl chloride, ethyl acrylate, and allylic monomers do not respond to these initiators under the conditions given in Table II.

Reduction of the sodium chloride level can result in taste problems and flavour shifts. There are several approaches to maintain salt taste. Most often, potassium chloride is used, because it shows the most prominent salty taste of those applicable inorganic salts. Lithium chloride is the most salty salt but cannot be used for toxicological reasons. Most consumers, however, complain about the bitter, chalky taste of KCl-containing formulations. Development of sodium-reduced products using mineral salts is a challenge and the whole product formula has often to be adapted [25]. Therefore, the main focus of the research was the search for masking compounds or technologies to cover the bad taste of KCl, e.g. phenolic acids and derivatives [26] and lactisol [27]. 

The volatility of lithium carbonate was studied by R. Bunsen he found that this compound volatilizes in the hottest part, of a Bunsen flame 8 74 (and by T. H. Norton and D. M. Roth 10) times as rapidly when melted as the same quantity of sodium chloride. According to L. Troost, lithium carbonate begins to decompose before it melts, and when melted it loses carbon dioxide, rapidly at first, but more slowly later on, until but 17 per cent, of the total remains, and P. Lebeau found that when heated in vacuo, all the carbon dioxide can be driven off, and a part of the resulting oxide is volatilized. P. Lebeau found the dissociation pressure of lithium carbonate to be at ... 

Why is carbon so versatile in its ability to bond to very different kinds of elements The special properties of carbon can be attributed to its being a relatively small atom with four valence electrons. To form simple saltlike compounds such as sodium chloride, Na Cle, carbon would have to either lose the four valence electrons to an element such as fluorine and be converted to a quadripositive ion, C4 , or acquire four electrons from an element such as lithium and form a quadrinegative ion, C40. Gain of four electrons would be energetically very unfavorable because of mutual repulsion between the electrons. 

Osmotic components usually are ionic compounds consisting of either inorganic salts or hydrophilic polymers. Osmotic agents can be any salt such as sodium chloride, potassium chloride, or sulfates of sodium or potassium and lithium. Additionally, sugars such as glucose, sorbitol, or sucrose or inorganic salts of carbohydrates can act as osmotic agents.18... 

To a suspension of 1 g of lithium aluminum hydride in 10 ml of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran cooled in an ice bath was added dropwise a solution of 1.94 g of methyl 3-methyl-trans-4a-cisoid-4a,5a-cis-5a-l,4a,5,5a,10b,10c-hexahydro-7-dioxino[5,4-a]cyclopenta[b]benzofurancarboxylate in 40 ml of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran. After being stirred for 30 min at room temperature, the reaction mixture was cooled in an ice bath. The excess of lithium aluminum hydride was decomposed by the addition of ethyl acetate, and aqueous saturated solution of potassium sodium tartarate was added to the reaction mixture. After filtration of the mixture, the filtrate was concentrated and the residue was dissolved in 10 ml of methanol. After addition of 2 g of potassium carbonate to the solution, the mixture was stirred for 3 hours at room temperature and was concentrated. After water was added to the residue, the aqueous mixture was extracted 3 times with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were washed with water and saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride, dried, and concentrated to give 2 g of crude crystals. The crude crystals were recrystallized from ethyl acetate-hexane to yield 1.49 g of the pure crystals of the titled compound (m.p. 124-125°C, yield 85%). 

One Te-C bond in a diorgano tellurium can be cleaved by alkali metals, organic lithium compounds, sodium hydroxide, lithium aluminum hydride, sodium borohydride, Grignard reagents, tributyltin hydride, sulfuric acid, sodium sulfide, sulfuryl chloride, hydrogen bromide, bromine, or iodine. The Te-C bond can also be broken thermally or through photostimulation. 

The structure of sodium chloride, which is the prototype for most of the alkali halides, is best described as a cubic closest packed array of Cl- ions with the Na+ ions in all of the octahedral holes [see Fig. 16.42(b)]. The relative sizes of these ions are such that rua 0.66i ci-> so this solid obeys the guidelines given previously. Note that the CP ions are forced apart by the Na+ ions, which are too large for the octahedral holes in the closest packed array of CP ions. Since the number of octahedral holes is the same as the number of packed spheres, all the octahedral holes must be filled with Na+ ions to achieve the required 1 1 stoichiometry. Most other alkali halides also have the sodium chloride structure. In fact, all the halides of lithium, sodium, potassium, and rubidium have this structure. Cesium fluoride has the sodium chloride structure but because of the large size of Cs+ ions, in this case the Cs ions form a cubic closest packed arrangement with the F ions in all the octahedral holes. On the other hand, cesium chloride, in which the Cs+ and CP ions are almost the same size, has a simple cubic structure of CP ions, with each Cs+ ion in the cubic hole in the center of each cube. The compounds cesium bromide and cesium iodide also have this latter structure. 

Liquids made of ions Usually when we think of ionic compounds, vve think of high-melting solids sodium chloride, magnesium sulfate, lithium carbonate, and so forth. But yes, there also ionic compounds that are liquid at room temperature, and they are gaining importance as reaction solvents, particularly for use in green chemistry processes (see the Chapter 11 foais O/i).
