Six crystalline phases of nonsolvated aluminum hydride were prepared by desolvation of AIH3 etherate in the presence of small amounts of LÍAIH4. The most stable phase, a-AlHj, was prepared both from the solid metastable phases and by crystallizing directly from a refluxing diethyl ether-benzene solution. Both the thermal stability and ease of preparation of aluminum hydride phases are highly dependent upon purity.Aluminum hydride (alane) was first reported as an impure solid* and subsequently as amine2"4 or ether complexes.5 A convenient synthesis of aluminum trihydride diethyletherate was developed by Finholt, Bond, and
The thermal and/or catalytic degradation of chloride‐containing polymers causes dehydrohalogenation which produces hydrochloric acid. A nonaqueous method has been developed for the termination of hydrochloric acid. The sample is dissolved in tetrahydrofuran and titrated potentiometrically with a standard tetrabutylammonium hydroxide solution in a 7.5% (V/V) aqueous tetrahydrofuran solution with a combination glass‐calomel electrode. The method has a relative precision of ±3.7% at the 95% confidence limit and a sensitivity of 25 ppm HCI.
A spectrophotometric method has been developed for the determination of oxidizing substances in food-grade hydrochloric acid. The method is based on the reaction of oxidizing substances with potassium iodide to form triiodide ion (I-3) whose absorbance is then measured at 485 nm. Oxidizing substances is reported as fig Cl2/mL. The method is applicable to oxidizing substances in the range of approximately 9-37 μgCl2/mL.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
