Product Description

Industrial Sodium Ethoxide CAS No. 141-52-6

Product Overview

Sodium ethoxide, chemical formula C2H5ONa, molecular weight 68.05. White or light yellow hygroscopic powder, easy to decompose in the air, easy to darken during storage. Soluble in anhydrous ethanol without decomposition. Sodium ethoxide is flammable and corrosive. Production method: 1. The ternary azeotropic method of benzene, ethanol, and water The solid sodium hydroxide is dissolved in ethanol and pure benzene solution (or in cyclohexane and ethanol solution), heated and refluxed, and continuously dehydrated through a tower reactor. Alkali amount and free base reach the standard. At the top of the tower, a ternary azeotropic mixture of benzene, ethanol and water was distilled off, and at the bottom of the tower, ethanol solution of sodium ethoxide was obtained. 2. The sodium metal method is derived from the action of metallic sodium and anhydrous ethanol.
