Lithium imide is thought to have a simple face-centered cubic structure with a Fm 3 m space group; with N-H bond distances of 0.82(6) Å and a H–N–H bond angle of 109.5°, giving it a similar structure to lithium amide. [2] [3] Lithium imide is strongly basic and deprotonates even some extremely weak acids such as methane and ammonia, due ...
The main use of LiPF 6 is in commercial secondary batteries, an application that exploits its high solubility in polar aprotic solvents.Specifically, solutions of lithium hexafluorophosphate in carbonate blends of ethylene carbonate, dimethyl carbonate, diethyl carbonate and/or ethyl methyl carbonate, with a small amount of one or many additives such as fluoroethylene carbonate and vinylene ...
Lithium amide or lithium azanide is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula LiNH 2. It is a white solid with a tetragonal crystal structure. [1] Lithium amide can be made by treating lithium metal with liquid ammonia: [2] 2 Li + 2 NH 3 → 2 LiNH 2 + H 2. Lithium amide decomposes into ammonia and lithium imide upon heating. [3]
Heating lithium amide with lithium hydride yields lithium imide and hydrogen gas. This reaction takes place as released ammonia reacts with lithium hydride. [2] Heating magnesium amide to about 400 °C yields magnesium imide with the loss of ammonia. Magnesium imide itself decomposes if heated between 455 and 490 °C. [6]
The Einhorn–Brunner reaction is the designation for the chemical reaction of imides with alkyl hydrazines to form an isomeric mixture of 1,2,4-triazoles. It was initially described by the German chemist Alfred Einhorn in a paper, published in 1905, describing N-methylol compounds of amides . [ 1 ]
Because of its very high solubility in water (> 21 m), LiTFSI has been used as lithium salt in water-in-salt electrolytes for aqueous lithium-ion batteries. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] References
N-selectride and K-selectride are related compounds, but instead of lithium as cation they have sodium and potassium cations respectively. These reagents can sometimes be used as alternatives to, for instance, sodium amalgam reductions in inorganic chemistry.
Naturally occurring lithium (3 Li) is composed of two stable isotopes, lithium-6 (6 Li) and lithium-7 (7 Li), with the latter being far more abundant on Earth. Both of the natural isotopes have an unexpectedly low nuclear binding energy per nucleon (5 332.3312(3) keV for 6 Li and 5 606.4401(6) keV for 7 Li) when compared with the adjacent lighter and heavier elements, helium (7 073.9156(4) keV ...
