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.
The [BAr F 4] − anion with four fluorinated aryl groups distributed tetrahedrally about a central boron atom. 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 the potassium salt of tetraiodoplatinate, a square planar complex of platinum(II). The compound crystallizes from water as the dihydrate, [ 1 ] whereas the related chloride and bromide K 2 PtCl 4 and K 2 PtBr 4 are obtained only as the anhydrous salts.
Tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) is a quaternary ammonium salt with a bromide commonly used as a phase transfer catalyst. [4] It is used to prepare many other tetrabutylammonium salts by salt metathesis reactions. The anhydrous form is a white solid. [2]
The reaction is driven by the low solubility of potassium chlorate in water. The equilibrium of the reaction is shifted to the right hand side by the continuous precipitation of the product (Le Chatelier's Principle). The precursor sodium chlorate is produced industrially in very large quantities by electrolysis of sodium chloride, common table ...
Sodium trimethylsiloxide is useful for generating metal complexes by salt metathesis reactions. A very bulky siloxide is tert-butyl 3 SiO −, sometimes called silox. Siloxides are weaker net donors than alkoxides because p π-d donation has to compete with backbonding from the oxygen atom into the low-lying Si-C σ * orbitals. [1]
The halide salt is prepared by the reaction of triethylamine and an ethyl halide: + + This method works well for the preparation of tetraethylammonium iodide (where X = I). [1] Most tetraethylammonium salts are prepared by salt metathesis reactions.
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 In some applications, tributyltin azide has been replaced by the less toxic trioctyltin azide and organoaluminium ...
