Thallium I) iodide. Til yellow or red solid precipitated from aqueous solution. 

Thallium I), TINO3. Formed by dissolving Tl, TI2CO3 or TIOH in HNO3 soluble in water. Decomposes at 300 C. 

Thallium I) sulphate, TI2SO4. Formed Tl plus hot cone. H2SO4 or TIOH plus H2SO4. Moderately soluble in water forms alums and double sulphates. 

In the absence of oxygen, gallium and indium are unaffected by water. Thallium, the most metallic element in Group III, reacts slowly with hot water and readily with steam to produce thallium(I) oxide, TI2O. 

Thallium(1) salts of tetrahydridoborate and aluminate are obtained from a T1(I) compound, eg, ethoxide, perchlorate, or nitrate, and LiBH or LiAlH ia ether. ThaIlium(I) tetrahydridoborate [61204-71 -5] TIBH, is unstable at 40°C, evolving diborane. Thallium(I) tetrahydridoaluminate... 

Thallic oxide can be prepared by reaction of thallium with oxygen or hydrogen peroxide and an alkaline thallium(I) solution. However, it is more easily made from the oxidation of thaHous nitrate by chlorine ia aqueous potassium hydroxide solution. It is insoluble in water but dissolves in carboxyUc acids to give carboxylates. 

A mild and effective method for obtaining N- acyl- and N- alkyl-pyrroles and -indoles is to carry out these reactions under phase-transfer conditions (80JOC3172). For example, A-benzenesulfonylpyrrole is best prepared from pyrrole under phase-transfer conditions rather than by intermediate generation of the potassium salt (81TL4901). In this case the softer nature of the tetraalkylammonium cation facilitates reaction on nitrogen. The thallium salts of indoles prepared by reaction with thallium(I) ethoxide, a benzene-soluble liquid. 

The aim of this work is the development of pyrene determination in gasoline and contaminated soils. For this purpose we used room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) in micellar solutions of sodium dodecylsulphate (SDS). For pyrene extraction from contaminated soils hexane was used. Then exttacts earned in glass and dried. After that remains was dissolved in SDS solution in the presence of sodium sulphite as deoxygenation agent and thallium (I) nitrate as heavy atom . For pyrene RTP excitation 337 nm wavelength was used. To check the accuracy of the procedures proposed for pyrene determining by RTP, the pyrene concentrations in the same gasoline samples were also measured by GC-MS. 

The method of stripping voltammetry (SV) is one of the most perspective methods in concentration range of thallium(I) determination of 10 -10 M. Achievement of high sensitivity of thallium(I) determination needs carrying out its additional concentration and sepai ation from other metals which ai e close by electrochemical properties. For these purposes it is offered to use a method of coprecipitation with collector. The combination of SV and a method of coprecipitation on a collector have shown that minimum detectable concentration can be decreased by 2-3 orders of magnitude. 

Stripping voltammetry procedure has been developed for determination of thallium(I) traces in aqueous medium on a mercury film electrode with application of thallium preconcentration by coprecipitation with manganese (IV) hydroxide. More than 90% of thallium present in water sample is uptaken by a deposit depending on conditions of prepai ation of precipitant. Direct determination of thallium was carried out by stripping voltammetry in AC mode with anodic polarization of potential in 0,06 M ascorbic acid in presence of 5T0 M of mercury(II) on PU-1 polarograph. 

Indium (0.24 ppm) is similar in abundance to Sb and Cd, whereas T1 (0.7 ppm) is close to Tm and somewhat less abundant than Mo, W and Tb (1.2 ppm). Both elements are chalcophiles (p. 648), indium tending to associate with the similarly sized Zn in its sulfide minerals whilst the larger T1 tends to replace Pb in galena, PbS. Thallium(I) has a similar radius to Rb and so also concentrates with this element in the late magmatic potassium minerals such as feldspars and micas.

Determination of silver as chloride Discussion. The theory of the process is given under Chloride (Section 11.57). Lead, copper(I), palladium)II), mercury)I), and thallium)I) ions interfere, as do cyanides and thiosulphates. If a mercury(I) [or copper(I) or thallium(I)] salt is present, it must be oxidised with concentrated nitric acid before the precipitation of silver this process also destroys cyanides and thiosulphates. If lead is present, the solution must be diluted so that it contains not more than 0.25 g of the substance in 200 mL, and the hydrochloric acid must be added very slowly. Compounds of bismuth and antimony that hydrolyse in the dilute acid medium used for the complete precipitation of silver must be absent. For possible errors in the weight of silver chloride due to the action of light, see Section 11.57. 

Determination of thallium as chromate Discussion. The thallium must be present in the thallium(I) state. If present as a thallium(III) salt, reduction must be effected (before precipitation) with sulphur dioxide the excess of sulphur dioxide is boiled off. 

The reaction is a sensitive one, but is subject to a number of interferences. The solution must be free from large amounts of lead, thallium (I), copper, tin, arsenic, antimony, gold, silver, platinum, and palladium, and from elements in sufficient quantity to colour the solution, e.g. nickel. Metals giving insoluble iodides must be absent, or present in amounts not yielding a precipitate. Substances which liberate iodine from potassium iodide interfere, for example iron(III) the latter should be reduced with sulphurous acid and the excess of gas boiled off, or by a 30 per cent solution of hypophosphorous acid. Chloride ion reduces the intensity of the bismuth colour. Separation of bismuth from copper can be effected by extraction of the bismuth as dithizonate by treatment in ammoniacal potassium cyanide solution with a 0.1 per cent solution of dithizone in chloroform if lead is present, shaking of the chloroform solution of lead and bismuth dithizonates with a buffer solution of pH 3.4 results in the lead alone passing into the aqueous phase. The bismuth complex is soluble in a pentan-l-ol-ethyl acetate mixture, and this fact can be utilised for the determination in the presence of coloured ions, such as nickel, cobalt, chromium, and uranium.
