Solvents using

Siher I) fluoride, AgF, is prepared by evaporation of a solution of excess Ag20 in HF after filtration or by heating anhydrous AgBF. The anhydrous salt is yellow hydrates are known, It is very soluble in water and in many organic solvents. Used as a mild fluorinating agent. On treatment of a solution with Ag a sub-fluoride, Ag2F, is formed. 

Tin IV) chloride, SnCU, stannic chloride. M.p. — 33" C, b.p. 1I4°C. Colourless fuming liquid (Sn plus CI2) hydrolysed in water but forms SnCl4,5H20 and [SnCl p" from acid solutions, soluble in organic solvents. Used as a mordant. 

Triton B Trade name for benzyltrimethyl-ammonium hydroxide usually as a 40% solution in methanol. A strong base, soluble in many solvents used as a catalyst. See phase transfer chemistry. 

Solvent power characterizes the miscibility of solute and solvent. This concept covers two types of uses dissolving a solid or reducing the viscosity of a liquid. The solvent power should be as high as possible. However, a solvent used as an extractant should also be selective, i.e., extract certain substances preferentially from the feed being treated. 

Apart from domain boimdaries, some of the defects in alkanethiol monolayers (pitholes) are created by the thiol itself 159] by etching processes. It was found that the solvent used for preparation also has some effect on the resulting defect density. 

Drying of crystals. Whenever possible crystals should be dried in a smdl vacuum desiccator containing a suitable desiccant. The latter depends upon the nature of the solvent used c/. p. 19). However for most purposes anhydrous calcium chloride is satisfactory. If a hydrocarbon has been used in the recrystallisation, a few thin fresh shavings of paraffin wax are efficacious. 

Acyl halides, both aliphatic and aromatic, react with the sodium derivative, but the product depends largely on the solvent used. Thus acetyl chloride reacts with the sodium derivative (E) suspended in ether to give mainly the C-derivative (t) and in pyridine solution to give chiefly the O-derivative (2). These isomeric compounds can be readily distinguished, because the C-derivative (1) can still by enolisation act as a weak acid and is therefore... 

The molecular elevation constants given on p. 440 can be used, but it is advisable to check the constant of the solvent, using a pure sample of a known compound under precisely the same conditions as those of the first determination. 

Surprisingly, the highest catalytic activity is observed in TFE. One mi t envisage this to be a result of the poor interaction between TFE and the copper(II) cation, so that the cation will retain most of its Lewis-acidity. In the other solvents the interaction between their electron-rich hetero atoms and the cation is likely to be stronger, thus diminishing the efficiency of the Lewis-acid catalysis. The observation that Cu(N03)2 is only poorly soluble in TFE and much better in the other solvents used, is in line with this reasoning. 

METHOD 3 Things start to look easier and the yields higher when the following method is employed [122]. This method uses a solvent called DMSO (dimethylsulfoxide). Maybe you ve never heard of this solvent but Strike has. It is a common solvent used in all fields of science and although Strike is not 100% sure. Strike believes that one can substitute DMF (dimethylformanilide) for DMSO. 

Aromatic thioamides can be prepared as described in the literature by different ways, either by S -> O exchange between the corresponding benzamides and phosphorus pentasulfide in pyridine solution in the presence of triethylamine (65, 646) as strong base, or by action of H2S on the appropriate nitrile with pyridine and triethylamine solvents using the method of Fairfull et al. (34, 374, 503). In this reaction, thioacetamide in acidic medium can also be used as a H2S generator with dimethylform-amide as the solvent (485). 

Isothiazole itself (283), Rx = Rj = Rj - H, is converted to thiazole in 7% yield, in propylamine as solvent using a low-pressure mercury lamp (642). 

The solvent used m catalytic hydrogenation is chosen for its ability to dissolve the alkene and is typically ethanol hexane or acetic acid The metal catalysts are insoluble m these solvents (or indeed m any solvent) Two phases the solution and the metal are present and the reaction takes place at the interface between them Reactions involving a substance m one phase with a different substance m a second phase are called het erogeneous reactions... 

Ethanol (industrial solvent used in preparation of ethyl acetate unleaded gasoline additive)... 

Anhydrous diethyl ether is the customary solvent used when preparing organo magnesium compounds Sometimes the reaction does not begin readily but once started It IS exothermic and maintains the temperature of the reaction mixture at the boiling point of diethyl ether (35°C)... 

The temperature in degrees Celsius at which the dielectric constant and dipole moment were measured is shown in this table in parentheses after the value. In some cases, the dipole moment was determined with the substance dissolved in a solvent, and the solvent used is also shown in parentheses after the temperature. 

To correct for all constant method errors, a blank must account for signals due to the reagents and solvent used in the analysis and any bias due to interac-... 

The majority of titrations involving basic analytes, whether conducted in aqueous or nonaqueous solvents, use HCl, HCIO4, or H2SO4 as the titrant. Solutions of these titrants are usually prepared by diluting a commercially available concentrated stock solution and are stable for extended periods of time. Since the concentrations of concentrated acids are known only approximately,the titrant s concentration is determined by standardizing against one of the primary standard weak bases listed in Table 9.7. 

The solvents used for liquid chromatography are the commoner ones such as water, acetonitrile, and methanol. For the reasons just stated, it is not possible to put them straight into the ion source without problems arising. On the other hand, the very viscous solvents that qualify as matrix material are of no use in liquid chromatography. Before the low-boiling-point eluant from the LC column is introduced into the ion source, it must be admixed with a high-boiling-point matrix... 

Figure 6.8 Effect of chain transfer to solvent according to Eq. (6.89) for polystyrene at 100°C. Solvents used were ethyl benzene ( ), isopropylbenzene (o), toluene (- ), and benzene (°). [Data from R. A. Gregg and F. R. Mayo, Discuss. Faraday Soc. 2 328 (1947).]...

The equation above suggests that one approach would be to use a pore Hquid that has a low surface tension. Indeed, two-step acid—base or acid—acid catalyzed sHica gels have been made, aged in ethanol or water, washed with various aprotic solvents, and finally evaporatively dried at 323 K for 48 hours and then at 383 K for 48 hours (43). The aprotic solvents used and their corresponding surface tension in N/m at room temperature (shown in...
