Thallium(I) hydroxide, also called thallous hydroxide, is a chemical compound with the chemical formula TlOH. It is a hydroxide of thallium, with thallium in oxidation state +1. It is a thallium(I) salt of water. It consists of thallium(I) cations Tl and hydroxide anions OH.
Synthesis
Thallium(I) hydroxide is obtained from the decomposition of thallium(I) ethoxide in water.
- CH3CH2OTl + H2O → TlOH + CH3CH2OH
This can also be done by direct reaction of thallium with ethanol and oxygen gas.
- 4 Tl + 2 CH3CH2OH + O2 → 2 CH3CH2OTl + 2 TlOH
Another method is the reaction between thallium(I) sulfate and barium hydroxide.
- Tl2SO4 + Ba(OH)2 → 2 TlOH + BaSO4
Properties
Thallium(I) hydroxide is a strong base; it dissociates to thallium(I) cations, Tl, and hydroxide anions, OH, except in strongly basic conditions. Tl cation resembles an alkali metal cation, such as Li, Na or K.
