Product Name
Sodium Borohydride
Product Properties
Sodium borohydride is a kind of inorganic compounds, for white to pale fine crystalline powder or lump, rapid response to generate hydrogen gas at room temperature and methanol.Strong moisture absorption, easy deliquescence water, the boiling point of 500 ℃ (vacuum);Melting point is 400 ℃;Soluble in water and lower alcohol, liquid ammonia, insoluble in ether, benzene, hydrocarbon;Relative density (water = 1) : 1.07, in the synthesis of inorganic and organic synthesis in the commonly used sodium borohydride reducing agent.The choice of sodium borohydride has strong reducibility, to select the carbonyl reduction into hydroxyl, but with carbon carbon double bond, three keys do not react.A small amount of sodium borohydride can be nitrile back into aldehyde, excessive reduction of amine.
Product Applications
Sodium borohydride is a kind of reductant, it is characteristic of stable performance and selective reduction. It can be used as aldehyde, ketone and chloride type of reducing agent, plastic manufacturing dihydrostreptomycin hydrogenation agent, foaming agent, produce potassium borohydride intermediates, synthetic borane raw material, and used in the papermaking industry and mercury sewage treatment agent, etc.
