Sodium naphthalene is an organic salt with the chemical formula Na + [C 10 H 8] −. In the research laboratory, it is used as a reductant in the synthesis of organic, organometallic, and inorganic chemistry. It is usually generated in situ. When isolated, it invariably crystallizes as a solvate with ligands bound to Na +. [1]
With alkali metals, naphthalene forms the dark blue-green radical anion salts such as sodium naphthalene, Na + C 10 H − 8. The naphthalene anions are strong reducing agents. Naphthalene can be hydrogenated under high pressure in the presence of metal catalysts to give 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene(C 10 H 12), also known as tetralin.
Sodium atoms have 11 electrons, one more than the stable configuration of the noble gas neon. As a result, sodium usually forms ionic compounds involving the Na + cation. [1] Sodium is a reactive alkali metal and is much more stable in ionic compounds. It can also form intermetallic compounds and organosodium compounds.
Vinyl monomers have the formula CH 2 =CHR, the most important are styrene (R = C 6 H 5), butadiene (R = CH=CH 2), and isoprene (R = C(Me)=CH 2). A second major class of monomers are acrylate esters, such as acrylonitrile, methacrylate, cyanoacrylate, and acrolein. Other vinyl monomers include vinylpyridine, vinyl sulfone, vinyl sulfoxide, vinyl ...
Virtually all sodium etching bond strengths reported in academic journals predate the advent of glymes as carriers for sodium naphthalene complex. In adhesion tests per ASTM D4541, in which an aluminum stud is bonded to the test surface and the stud is pulled in the direction normal to the surface, both surfaces of the failure interface were ...
The sodium fusion test, or Lassaigne's test, is used in elemental analysis for the qualitative determination of the presence of foreign elements, namely halogens, nitrogen, and sulfur, in an organic compound. It was developed by J. L. Lassaigne. [1] The test involves heating the sample with sodium metal, "fusing" it with the sample. A variety ...
With alkali metals, 1-methylnaphthalene forms radical anion salts such as sodium 1-methylnaphthalene. Compared to its structural analog sodium naphthalene , sodium 1-methylnaphthalene is more soluble, which is useful for low-temperature reductions.
Lithium naphthalene is an organic salt with the chemical formula Li + [C 10 H 8] −. In the research laboratory, it is used as a reductant in the synthesis of organic, organometallic, and inorganic chemistry. It is usually generated in situ. Lithium naphthalene crystallizes with ligands bound to Li +. [1] The anion is a well-known example of ...
