Lithium perchlorate trihydrate, Reagent Grade

Description

CAS: 13453-78-6 | ClH6LiO7 | 160.431 g/mol

It is used as an oxygen source for chemical oxygen generators, as it liberates oxygen at high temperatures. Excellent solubility of lithium perchlorate permits its use in Diels-Alder reactions. It is also employed in lithium-ion batteries as an electrolyte, and act as chaotropic agent to denature proteins. It is used in Baylis-Hillman reaction as a catalyst in the coupling of alpha,beta-unsaturated carbonyl compounds with aldehydes.
