Sodium hydroxide with formic acid

Thus an active nickel catalyst may be prepared simply by heating the formate in oil at around 240°C for about 1 h this method has been employed in the oil-hardening industry for the preparation of a wet-reduced catalyst,42 although the decomposition temperature is too high for normal oil-hardening and the catalyst may not be prepared directly in a hydrogenation tank, particularly for edible purposes. Nickel formate is prepared by the reaction between nickel sulfate and sodium formate,43 or the direct reaction of basic nickel carbonate44 or nickel hydroxide with formic acid.31... 

Several examples exist for the conversion of 5-aminothiazoles into the corresponding thiazolopyrimidines. Shaw and Butler report the formation of aminothiazole thiocarboxyamide 27 from the thioamide 26 and carbon disulphide using Cook and Heilbron s procedure. Methylation of 27 gave carboxythioimidate 28 which then reacted with sodium hydroxide to give amino-nitrile 29, and with formic acid and acetic anhydride to give the thiazolopyrimidine 30. 

Iodine was determined by an iodometric titration adapted from White and Secor.(3) Instead of the normal Carius combustion, iodide was separated from the samples either by slurrying in 6M NaOH, or by stirring the sample with liquid sodium-potassium (NaK) alloy, followed by dissolving excess NaK in ethanol. Precipitated plutonium hydroxides were filtered. Iodine was determined in the filtrate by bromine oxidation to iodate in an acetate buffer solution, destruction of the excess bromine with formic acid, acidifying with SO, addition of excess KI solution, and titrating the liberated iodine with standard sodium thiosulfate. The precision of the iodine determination is estimated to be about 5% of the measured value, principally due to incomplete extraction of iodine from the sample. 

Preparation First of all sodium hydroxide is added to formalin to make its pH about 8. To this urea is added. Now this mixture is refluxed for about 15 minutes. Then, it is acidified with formic acid and boiled for a further 5-20 minutes. The product is now neutralised with sodium hydroxide and evaporated under reduced pressure to get solid resin. 

The amount of liberated carbon dioxide was equimolar to the HCl adsorption. Rivin confirmed also that hydrogen peroxide is formed by reaction of carbon black with formic acid in the presence of oxygen. Physically adsorbed hydrochloric acid was removed by washing with dioxane. The remaining chloride ions on the surface were replaced by hydroxide ions on treatment with sodium hydroxide. The reaction was formulated as production of a carbinol ... 

Bulk aluminum may undergo the following dangerous interactions exothermic reaction with butanol, methanol, 2-propanol, or other alcohols, sodium hydroxide to release explosive hydrogen gas. Reaction with diborane forms pyrophoric product. Ignition on contact with niobium oxide + sulfur. Explosive reaction with molten metal oxides, oxosalts (nitrates, sulfates), sulfides, and sodium carbonate. Reaction with arsenic trioxide + sodium arsenate + sodium hydroxide produces the toxic arsine gas. Violent reaction with chlorine trifluoride, Incandescent reaction with formic acid. Potentially violent alloy formation with palladium, platinum at mp of Al, 600°C. Vigorous dissolution reaction in...
