  • Peroxysalts of the Alkali Metals and Related Species
    PEROXYSALTS OF THE ALKALI METALS AND RELATED SPECIES. A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY of the University of London BY DAVID PHILIP JONES, B.SC., A,R,C.S, Department of Chemistry, Imperial College of Science and Technology, London, SW7 2AY August, 1979. 2 ABSTRACT Peroxysalts of the Alkali Metals and Related Species. David Philip Jones The work described in this thesis is concerned mainly with the preparation, characterisation and physicochemical properties of a series of different inorganic peroxysalts, in particular the alkali metal percarbonates. Extensive use has been made of vibrational spectroscopy as a tool for obtaining structural information, with both 2H and 13C isotopic substitutions helping in the assignments of vibrational modes. All of the peroxysalts studied fall into either of two categories. The first are perhydrates, which contain hydrogen peroxide of crystallisation, such as sodium oxalate monoperhydrate, Na2C204.H202 and " sodium percarbonate", Na2CO3.11H2O2. The second group contain peroxo moieties bound to atoms other than hydrogen, e.g., boron in " sodium perborate" , Na2B2(02)2(OH)4.6H20 or carbon in potassium peroxydicarbonate, K2C206, these types of compounds being referred to as " true" peroxysalts. The structures of both of the commonly used bleaching agents " sodium percarbonate" and " sodium perborate" are described, full X-ray structural determinations having been carried out in the Chemical Crystallography Laboratories during the course of this work. 3 Due to particular interest in percarbonates, one of the very few known transition metal peroxycarbonato complexes, bistriphenyl- phosphine peroxycarbonato platinum(II) has been prepared and its structure also determined by X-ray crystallography.

Title III of SARA, known as the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Act, sets requirements for hazardous chemicals, improves the public’s access to information on chemical hazards in their community, and establishes reporting responsibilities for facilities that store, use, and/or release hazardous chemicals. RQ = Reportable Quantity. An amount entered in this column indicates the substance may be reportable under §304 of SARA Title III. Amount is in pounds, a "K" represents 1,000 pounds. An asterisk following the Reporting Quantity (i.e. 5000*) will indicate that reporting of releases is not required if the diameter of the pieces of the solid metal released is equal to or exceeds 100 micrometers (0.004 inches). TPQ = Threshold Planning Quantity. An amount entered in this column reads in pounds and indicates the substance is an Extremely Hazardous Substance (EHS), and may require reporting under sections 302, 304 & 312 of SARA Title III. A TPQ with a slash (/) indicates a "split" TPQ. The number to the left of the slash is the substance's TPQ only if the substance is present in the form of a fine powder (particle size less than 100 microns), molten or in solution, or reacts with water (NFPA rating = 2, 3 or 4). The TPQ is 10,000 lb if the substance is present in other forms. A star (*) in the 313 column= The substance is reportable under §313 of SARA Title III.
