CAS Registry Number: 14874-24-9
Additional Names: Tris(ethylenediamine)cadmium hydroxide; tri(en)cadmium hydroxide
Trademarks: Cadoxen
Molecular Formula: C6H26CdN6O2
Molecular Weight: 326.72
Percent Composition: C 22.06%, H 8.02%, Cd 34.41%, N 25.72%, O 9.79%
Line Formula: [Cd(H2NCH2CH2NH2)3](OH)2
Literature References: Prepared by shaking a given amount of cadmium oxide in 10 times its wt of 30% aq ethylenediamine soln for 15 minutes and centrifuging; the supernatant liquor is the product: Jayme, Neuschäfer, Naturwissenschaften 44, 62 (1957). The soln contains about 4.5% Cd (w/w) and dissolves about 3% (w/w) cellulose, giving a clear, highly viscous soln.
Use: Solvent for cellulose: Jayme, DE 1079318 (1960 to E. Merck), C.A. 55, 18107d (1961); solvent for sulfite pulps. |
