Barium hydroxide is occasionally used in organic synthesis as a strong base, for example for the hydrolysis of esters [8] and nitriles, [9] [10] [11] and as a base in aldol condensations. There are several uses for barium hydroxide such as to hydrolyse one of the two equivalent ester groups in dimethyl hendecanedioate. [12]
Strong bases hydrolyze in water almost completely, resulting in the leveling effect." [7] In this process, the water molecule combines with a strong base, due to the water's amphoteric ability; and, a hydroxide ion is released. [7] Very strong bases can even deprotonate very weakly acidic C–H groups in the absence of water.
HSAB is an acronym for "hard and soft (Lewis) acids and bases".HSAB is widely used in chemistry for explaining the stability of compounds, reaction mechanisms and pathways. It assigns the terms 'hard' or 'soft', and 'acid' or 'base' to chemical species.
Radium hydroxide (Ra(OH) 2) is the most readily soluble among the alkaline earth hydroxides and is a stronger base than its barium congener, barium hydroxide. [3] It is also more soluble than actinium hydroxide and thorium hydroxide: these three adjacent hydroxides may be separated by precipitating them with ammonia. [3]
For example, sodium hydroxide, NaOH, is a strong base. NaOH(aq) → Na + (aq) + OH − (aq) Therefore, when a strong acid reacts with a strong base the neutralization reaction can be written as H + + OH − → H 2 O. For example, in the reaction between hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide the sodium and chloride ions, Na + and Cl − take ...
