Sodium chloride solution preparation

Meanwhile, during the cooling of the cuprous chloride solution, prepare a solution of benzenediazonium chloride by dissolving 20 ml. (20-5 g.) of aniline in a mixture of 50 ml. of concentrated hydrochloric acid and 50 ml. of water, and after cooling to 5°, adding slowly a solution of 17 g. of sodium nitrite in 40 ml. of water. Observe carefully the general conditions for diazotisation given in the preparation of iodobenzene (p. 184). 

Place 10 ml. of 1% starch solution (prepared as described above) in a boiling-tube, add 2 ml. of 1% sodium chloride solution and place the tube in a water-bath maintained at 38-40 . Place about 5 ml. of water in a series of test-tubes and to each add a few drops of 1% iodine solution. Now add 4 ml. of the diluted saliva solution to the starch solution, mix well and note the time. At intervals of about 30 seconds transfer 2 drops of the reacting mixture, by means of a dropping tube, to one of the test-tubes, mix and note the colour. As in the previous experiment, the colour, which is blue at first, changes to blue-violet, red-violet, red-brown, pale brown, and finally disappears at this stage the solution will reduce Fehling s solution. If the reaction proceeds too quickly for the colour changes to be observed, the saliva solution should be diluted. 

In a 1-litre three-necked flask, fitted with a mechanical stirrer, reflux condenser and a thermometer, place 200 g. of iodoform and half of a sodium arsenite solution, prepared from 54-5 g. of A.R. arsenious oxide, 107 g. of A.R. sodium hydroxide and 520 ml. of water. Start the stirrer and heat the flask until the thermometer reads 60-65° maintain the mixture at this temperature during the whole reaction (1). Run in the remainder of the sodium arsenite solution during the course of 15 minutes, and keep the reaction mixture at 60-65° for 1 hour in order to complete the reaction. AUow to cool to about 40-45° (2) and filter with suction from the small amount of solid impurities. Separate the lower layer from the filtrate, dry it with anhydrous calcium chloride, and distil the crude methylene iodide (131 g. this crude product is satisfactory for most purposes) under diminished pressure. Practically all passes over as a light straw-coloured (sometimes brown) liquid at 80°/25 mm. it melts at 6°. Some of the colour may be removed by shaking with silver powder. The small dark residue in the flask solidifies on cooling. 

The vanadium pentoxide catalyst Is prepared as follows Suspend 5 g. of pure ammonium vanadate in 50 ml. of water and add slowly 7 5 ml. of pure concentrated hydrochloric acid. Allow the reddish-brown, semi-colloidal precipitate to settle (preferably overnight), decant the supernatant solution, and wash the precipitate several times by decantation. Finally, suspend the precipitate in 76 ml. of water and allow it to stand for 3 days. This treatment renders the precipitate granular and easy to 6lter. Filter the precipitate with suction, wash it several times with cold 5 p>er cent, sodium chloride solution to remove hydrochloric acid. Dry the product at 120° for 12 hours, grind it in a mortar to a fine powder, and heat again at 120° for 12 hours. The yield of catalyst is about 3 - 5 g. 

Concurrently with the preparation of the phenyldiazonium chloride solution, prepare a cold suspension of sodium arsenite. Place 250 ml. of water in a 3-htre round-bottomed flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer. Heat the water to boding, add 125 g. of anhydrous sodium carbonate, and, as soon as the carbonate has dissolved, introduce 62 5 g. of pure arsenious oxide and 3 g. of crystallised copper sulphate with stirring. When all the solids have dissolved, cool the solution with stirring under a stream of tap water until the temperature has fallen to 15°. 

This product is sufficiently pure for the preparation of phenylacetic acid and its ethyl ester, but it contains some benzyl tso-cyanide and usually develops an appreciable colour on standing. The following procedure removes the iso-cyanide and gives a stable water-white compound. Shake the once-distilled benzyl cyanide vigorously for 5 minutes with an equal volume of warm (60°) 60 per cent, sulphuric acid (prepared by adding 55 ml. of concentrated sulphuric acid to 100 ml. of water). Separate the benzyl cyanide, wash it with an equal volume of sa+urated sodium bicarbonate solution and then with an equal volume of half-saturated sodium chloride solution- Dry with anhydrous magnesium sulphate and distil under reduced pressure. The loss in washing is very small (compare n-Butyl Cyanide, Section 111,113, in which concentrated hydrochloric acid is employed). 

A sodium stannite solution was prepared by addition of aqueous sodium hydroxide (2.5 mol, lOOg) to aqueous stannous chloride (0.25 mol, 56g). The initially formed precipitate redissolved to form a clear solution. This solution was gradually added to a solution of 16.3g (0.1 mol) phenyl-2-nitropropene in THF at room temperature. A slightly exothermic reaction ensued, and the reaction mixture was stirred for 30 min, a saturated sodium chloride solution was added, and the solution was extracted with ether and the pooled extracts were evaporated under vacuum to give essentially pure P2P oxime in 80% yield. 

Brine Preparation. Sodium chloride solutions are occasionally available naturally but they are more often obtained by solution mining of salt deposits. Raw, near-saturated brines containing low concentrations of impurities such as magnesium and calcium salts, are purified to prevent scaling of processing equipment and contamination of the product. Some brines also contain significant amounts of sulfates (see Chemicals FROMBRINe). Brine is usually purified by a lime—soda treatment where the magnesium is precipitated with milk of lime (Ca(OH)2) and the calcium precipitated with soda ash. After separation from the precipitated impurities, the brine is sent to the ammonia absorbers. 

Mercuric Nitrate. Mercuric nitrate [10045-94-0] Hg(N02)2, is a colorless dehquescent crystalline compound prepared by the exothermic dissolution of mercury in hot, concentrated nitric acid. The reaction is complete when a cloud of mercurous chloride is not formed when the solution is treated with sodium chloride solution. The product crystallizes upon cooling. Mercuric nitrate is used in organic synthesis as the starting material and for the formulation of a great many other mercuric products. 

Ophthalmic Dosage Forms. Ophthalmic preparations can be solutions, eg, eye drops, eyewashes, ointments, or aqueous suspensions (30). They must be sterile and any suspended dmg particles must be of a very fine particle size. Solutions must be particle free and isotonic with tears. Thus, the osmotic pressure must equal that of normal saline (0.9% sodium chloride) solution. Hypotonic solutions are adjusted to be isotonic by addition of calculated amounts of tonicity adjusters, eg, sodium chloride, boric acid, or sodium nitrate. 

Brine Preparation. Rock salt and solar salt (see Chemicals frombrine) can be used for preparing sodium chloride solution for electrolysis. These salts contain Ca, Mg, and other impurities that must be removed prior to electrolysis. Otherwise these impurities are deposited on electrodes and increase the energy requirements. The raw brine can be treated by addition of sodium carbonate and hydroxide to reduce calcium and magnesium levels to below 10 ppm. If further reduction in hardness is required, an ion-exchange resin can be used. A typical brine specification for the Huron chlorate ceU design is given in Table 6. 

D. a-Allyl- -bromoelhyl ethyl ether. The same apparatus is used as in the preparation of allylmagnesium bromide. The flask is charged with an amount of the Grignard solution (part C) equivalent to 2.78 moles of allylmagnesium bromide (or chloride) and cooled in an ice bath. A solution of 580 g. (2.5 moles) of o , 3-dibromoethyl ethyl ether (part B) in an equal volume of anhydrous ether is added slowly with stirring over a period of 3-4 hours. The mixture is allowed to stand overnight and is then hydrolyzed with 75 ml. of 20% acetic acid followed by 500 ml. of water. The ether layer is separated, washed with four 100-ml. portions of 10% aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution followed by four 100-ml. portions of saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried over 100 g. of anhydrous calcimn sulfate, and distilled under reduced pressure. The yield of colorless a-allyl-/3-bromoethyl ethyl ether is 370-396 g. (77-82% based on the a, 3-dibromoethyl ethyl ether), b.p. 72-75°/21 mm., 1.4600-1.4606. 

Prepare a homogeneous gel slurry by mixing 160 g of gel from the sintered glass funnel with 160 ml of a 1 M sodium chloride solution. 

Primary Chlorides Dry sodium cyanide (30 g, 0.61 mole) is added to 150 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide in a flask fitted with a stirrer, reflux condenser, dropping funnel, and thermometer. The thick slurry is heated on a steam bath to 90° and the steam bath is then removed. The halide (0.5 mole of monochloride or 0.25 mole of dichloride) is slowly added to the stirred mixture, causing the temperature to increase immediately. The rate of addition should be adjusted so that the temperature of the reaction does not go above about 160°. After all the halide is added (about 10 minutes) the mixture is stirred for 10 minutes more, or until the temperature drops below 50°. In the preparation of mononitriles, the reaction mixture is then poured into water, and the product is extracted with chloroform or ether. The extract is washed several times with saturated sodium chloride solution then dried over calcium chloride, and the product is distilled. 

Preparation of L-(-)-y-Benzyloxycarbonylamino-a-Hydroxybutyric Acid L-(-)-7-amino-o-hydroxybutyric acid (7.4 g, 0,062 mol) was added to a solution of 5.2 grams (0.13 mol) of sodium hydroxide in 50 ml of water. To the stirred soiution was added dropwise at 0 -5°C over a period of 0.5 hour, 11.7 grams (0.06B mol) of carbobenzoxy chloride and the mixture was stirred for another hour at the same temperature. The reaction mixture was washed with 50 ml of ether, adjusted to pH 2 with dilute hydrochloric acid and extracted with four BO ml portions of ether. The ethereai extracts were combined, washed with a small amount of saturated sodium chloride solution, dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate and filtered. The filtrate was evaporated in vacuo and the resulting residue was crystallized from benzene to give 11.6 grams (74%) of colorless plates MP 78.5° to 79.5°C. 

Prepared saltwater completion fluids are made of fresh surface water, with sufficient salts added to produce the proper salt concentration. Usually, the addition of 5 to 10% NaCl, 2% CaClj, or 2% KCl is considered satisfactory for clay inhibition in most formations. Sodium chloride solutions have been extensively used for many years as completion fluids these brines have densities up to 10 Ib/gal. Calcium chloride solutions may have densities up to 11.7 lb/ gal. The limitations of CaClj solutions are (1) flocculation of certain clays, causing permeability reduction, and (2) high pH (10 to 10.5) that may accelerate formation clays dispersion. In such cases, CaC12-based completion fluids should be replaced with potassium chloride solutions. Other clear brines can be formulated using various salts over wide range of densities, as shown in Figure 4-123 [28]. 

Sample solution. Prepare a sample solution containing 100 pg of copper(II) in 1 L of 0.5M sodium chloride solution in a graduated flask. 

For some purposes, modifications of the calomel electrode may be preferred. Thus, if it is necessary to avoid the presence of potassium ions, the electrode may be prepared with sodium chloride solution replacing the potassium chloride. In some cases the presence of chloride ions may be inimical and a mercury(I) sulphate electrode may then be used this is prepared in similar manner to a calomel electrode using mercury)I) sulphate and potassium sulphate or sodium sulphate solution. 

Prepare an approximately 0.1 M silver nitrate solution. Place 0.1169 g of dry sodium chloride in the beaker, add 100 mL of water, and stir until dissolved. Use a silver wire electrode (or a silver-plated platinum wire), and a silver-silver chloride or a saturated calomel reference electrode separated from the solution by a potassium nitrate-agar bridge (see below). Titrate the sodium chloride solution with the silver nitrate solution following the general procedure described in Experiment 1 it is important to have efficient stirring and to wait long enough after each addition of titrant for the e.m.f. to become steady. Continue the titration 5 mL beyond the end point. Determine the end point and thence the molarity of the silver nitrate solution. 

Hydroxylammonium chloride. 10 per cent aqueous solution, or benzene-1,4-diol (quinol), 1 per cent solution in an acetic acid buffer of pH ca 4.5 (mix 65 mL of 0.1M acetic acid and 35 mL of 0.1M sodium acetate solution). Prepare when required. 

B. 2,2-(Trimethylenedithio)cyclohexanone. A solution of 3.02 g. (0.02 mole) of freshly distilled 1-pyrrolidinocyclohexene, 8.32 g. (0.02 mole) of trimethylene dithiotosylate4 (Note 2), and 5 ml. of triethylamine (Note 3) in 40 ml. of anhydrous acetonitrile (Note 4), is refluxed for 12 hours in a 100-ml., round-bottom flask under a nitrogen atmosphere. The solvent is removed under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator, and the residue is treated with 100 ml. of aqueous 0.1 N hydrochloric acid for 30 minutes at 50° (Note 5). The mixture is cooled to ambient temperature and extracted with three 50-ml. portions of ether. The combined ether extracts are washed with aqueous 10% potassium bicarbonate solution (Note 6) until the aqueous layer remains basic to litmus, and then with saturated sodium chloride solution. The ethereal solution is dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated on a rotary evaporator. The resulting oily residue is diluted with 1 ml. of benzene and then with 3 ml. of cyclohexane. The solution is poured into a chromatographic column (13 x 2.5 cm.), prepared with 50 g. of alumina (Note 7) and a 3 1 mixture of cyclohexane and benzene. With this solvent system, the desired product moves with the solvent front, and the first 250 ml. of eluent contains 95% of the total product. Elution with a further 175 ml. of solvent removes the remainder. The combined fractions are evaporated, and the pale yellow, oily residue crystallizes readily on standing. Recrystallization of this material from pentane gives 1.82 g. of white crystalline 2,2-(trimethylenedithio)cyclo-hexanone, m.p. 52-55° (45% yield) (Note 8). 

Mercuric oxide (5 g.) is dissolved for the most part in a still warm mixture of 110 c.c. of water and 50 c.c. of concentrated sulphuric acid. The mixture is brought into a large hydrogenation flask (Fig. 58, p. 377) and shaken for some time with acetylene prepared from calcium carbide, purified with acid solutions of dichromate and copper nitrate, and collected over saturated sodium chloride solution in a glass gas-holder (capacity 10-15 litres). Before shaking is begun the air present must be displaced by the hydrocarbon. 

If cinchonine d-mandelate is not available a specimen suitable for the inoculation in the first experiment is prepared as follows To a few cubic centimetres of the solution (a) saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution is added drop by drop until slight precipitation occurs. The mixture is then heated until the precipitated material has dissolved, after which the solution is allowed to stand until crystals have been deposited, which may require a day. The crystals consist of cinchonine hydrochloride on which a small amount of cinchonine d-mandelate is deposited, enough, however, to induce the separation of further quantities of the d-salt. 

This procedure has been used successfully for many years in the preparation of ethyl laurate, caprylate, and myristate by the alcoholysis of cocoanut oil (1 kg.) in ethanol (1900 g.) with hydrogen chloride (50 g.) as a catalyst.3 The method differs slightly from the one described above. The alcoholysis is complete after fifteen or twenty hours, and the solution is then neutralized to methyl orange with barium carbonate. The mixture is added to an equal volume of a saturated sodium chloride solution, whereupon 1100-1300 g. of the mixture of crude ethyl esters separates. This mixture of esters is washed with water and fractionated as described above. The yields are approximately 50 g. of ethyl caprylate, 350 g. of ethyl laurate, and 60 g. of ethyl myristate from 1000 g. of cocoanut oil. 

Loss of Tin. The preparation and characterization of organ-otin-epoxy polymers have been reported earlier (3). In an effort to determine the loss of tin from these controlled release formulations, 0.5-mm thick coatings were kept immersed in 4% sodium chloride solution under conditions approximating Figure 2a. The concentration of TBTC1 in the aqueous phase was maintained low by continuously extracting it into hexane. Analysis of the coating at the end of 16 months revealed that not more than 2% tin was lost in any of the four cases studied. 

In preparing cyclohexene from cyclohexanol, the impure cyclohexene obtained during the distillation of the reaction mixture can be further purified by solvent extraction. This can be done by adding the crude cyclohexene to a separating funnel along with an equal volume of sodium chloride solution. Impurities in the cyclohexene are extracted into the lower aqueous sodium chloride layer. The cyclohexene layer is then run off and treated with anhydrous magnesium sulfate to remove any remaining water.
