  2. Sodium hypochlorite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_hypochlorite

    In particular, this reaction occurs in sodium hypochlorite solutions at high temperatures, forming sodium chlorate and sodium chloride: [22] [23] 3 NaOCl(aq) → 2 NaCl(aq) + NaClO 3 (aq) This reaction is exploited in the industrial production of sodium chlorate. An alternative decomposition of hypochlorite produces oxygen instead: 2 OCl − ...

  3. Olin Raschig process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olin_Raschig_process

    The Olin Raschig process is a chemical process for the production of hydrazine.The main steps in this process, patented by German chemist Friedrich Raschig in 1906 and one of three reactions named after him, are the formation of monochloramine from ammonia and hypochlorite, and the subsequent reaction of monochloramine with ammonia towards hydrazine. [1]

  4. Hypochlorite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypochlorite

    Hypochlorite salts are formed by the reaction between chlorine and alkali and alkaline earth metal hydroxides. The reaction is performed at close to room temperature to suppress the formation of chlorates. This process is widely used for the industrial production of sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) and calcium hypochlorite (Ca(ClO) 2).

  5. Bleach - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleach

    This is the mechanism of bleaches based on chlorine but also of oxygen-anions which react through the initial nucleophilic attack. [12] A reducing bleach works by converting double bonds in the chromophore into single bonds. This eliminates the ability of the chromophore to absorb visible light. This is the mechanism of bleaches based on sulfur ...

  6. Berthelot's reagent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berthelot's_reagent

    Berthelot's reagent is an alkaline solution of phenol and hypochlorite, used in analytical chemistry. It is named after its inventor, Marcellin Berthelot. Ammonia reacts with Berthelot's reagent to form a blue product which is used in a colorimetric method for determining ammonia. The reagent can also be used for determining urea.

  7. Monochloramine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monochloramine

    The reaction has to be carried out in a slightly alkaline medium (pH 8.5–11). The acting chlorinating agent in this reaction is hypochlorous acid (HOCl), which has to be generated by protonation of hypochlorite, and then reacts in a nucleophilic substitution of the hydroxyl against the amino group. The reaction occurs quickest at around pH 8.

  8. Electrochlorination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrochlorination

    That is, energy is added to sodium chloride (table salt) in water, producing sodium hypochlorite and hydrogen gas. Because the reaction takes place in an unpartitioned cell and NaOH is present in the same solution as the Cl 2: 2 NaCl + 2 H 2 O → 2 NaOH + H 2 + Cl 2. any Cl 2 disproportionates to hypochlorite and chloride Cl 2 + 2 NaOH → ...

  9. Hofmann rearrangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hofmann_rearrangement

    Sodium hypochlorite, [4] lead tetraacetate, [5] N-bromosuccinimide, and (bis(trifluoroacetoxy)iodo)benzene [6] can effect a Hofmann rearrangement. The intermediate isocyanate can be trapped with various nucleophiles to form stable carbamates or other products rather than undergoing decarboxylation.
