GENERAL
DESCRIPTION AND APPLICATIONS
|
Hydrazine (anhydrous),
H2NNH2,
is a clear, fuming, corrosive liquid with an ammonia-like
odor; melting at 1.4 C, boiling at 113.5 C, specific gravity 1.011. It is very
soluble in water and soluble in alcohol. It decomposes on heating or exposure to
UV to form ammonia, hydrogen, and nitrogen, which may be explosive with a blue
flame when catalysed by metal oxides and some metals such as platinum or Raney
nickel. It is prepared from ammonia with chloramine in the presence of glue or
gelatin (to inhibit decomposition of the hydrazine by unreacted oxidants) as the
hydrate form usually (100% monohydrate contains 64% by weight hydrazine).
Hydrazine is also prepared from sodium hypochlorite with urea in the presence of
glue or gelatin. Botht ammonia and amines are nitrogen nucleophiles which
donate electrons (they are Lewis bases). But hydrazine (diamine) has much
stronger nucleophilicity which makes it more reactive than ammonia. Hydrazine
has dibasic and very reactive properties. Hydrazine is used as a component in
jet fuels because it produce a large amount of heat when burned. It is less flammable and less volatile
than hydrocarbon fuels. They are relatively environmentally friendly because
they degrade quickly in the environment. Hydrazine is used as an oxygen scavenger for water boiler
feed and heating systems to prevent corrosion damage. Hydrazine is used as a
reducing agent for the recovery of precious metals. It is used as a
polymerization catalyst and a chain extender in urethane coatings. It and its
derivatives are versatile intermediates. They have active applications in
organic synthesis for agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, photographic, heat
stabilizers, polymerization catalysts, flame-retardants, blowing agents for
plastics, explosives, and dyes. Recently, hydrazine is applied to LCD (liquid
crystal displays) as the fuel to make faster thin-film transistors. Hydrazine
sulfate is used in separating rare earth metals and as a hydrazine source in
manufacturing organic compounds as well as other hydrazine compounds. It is used
as a fungicide. It is used in biologically active material synthesis ( it is
used in test blood). |
