Salt metathesis is a common technique for exchanging counterions. The choice of reactants is guided by a solubility chart or lattice energy. HSAB theory can also be used to predict the products of a metathesis reaction. Salt metathesis is often employed to obtain salts that are soluble in organic solvents.
Tetrakis[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]borate is an anion with chemical formula [{3,5-(CF 3) 2 C 6 H 3} 4 B] −, which is commonly abbreviated as [BAr F 4] −, indicating the presence of fluorinated aryl (Ar F) groups. It is sometimes referred to as Kobayashi's anion in honour of Hiroshi Kobayashi who led the team that first synthesised it. [1]
In principle, salt metathesis reactions can adjoin an allyl ligand from an allylmagnesium bromide or related allyl lithium reagent. [3] However, the carbanion salt precursors require careful synthesis, as allyl halides readily undergo Wurtz coupling. Mercury and tin allyl halides appear to avoid this side-reaction. [12]
It is used to prepare many other tetrabutylammonium salts by salt metathesis reactions. The anhydrous form is a white solid. [2] In addition to being cheap, tetrabutylammonium bromide is also environmentally friendly, has a greater degree of selectivity, is operationally simple, non-corrosive, and can be recycled easily as well. [5]
The compound is prepared by the salt metathesis reaction of potassium iodide and potassium tetrachloroplatinate: [3] K 2 PtCl 4 + 4 KI → K 2 PtI 4 + 4 KCl Potassium tetraiodoplatinate is a precursor to the anticancer drug cisplatin .
Using salt metathesis reactions, nitrite, azide, and other small inorganic anions can be obtained with [(Ph 3 P) 2 N] + cations. The resulting salts [(Ph 3 P) 2 N] + NO − 2, [(Ph 3 P) 2 N] + N − 3, etc. are soluble in polar organic solvents. [(Ph 3 P) 2 N] + forms crystalline salts with a range of anions that are otherwise difficult to ...
Like regular metallocenes, bent metallocenes are synthesized by a variety of methods but most typically by reaction of sodium cyclopentadienide with the metal halide. This method applies to the synthesis of the bent metallocene dihalides of titanium, zirconium, hafnium, and vanadium:
Tributyltin azide is synthesized by the salt metathesis reaction of tributyltin chloride and sodium azide. It is a reagent used in the synthesis of tetrazoles, which in turn are used to generate angiotensin II receptor antagonists. In some applications, tributyltin azide has been replaced by the less toxic trioctyltin azide and organoaluminium ...
