Description

Potassium carbonate sesquihydrate is a mild drying agent used to pre-dry ketones, alcohols, and amines prior to distillation. In addition, this compound is beneficial to use when other drying agents such as Calcium chloride and Magnesium sulfate are incompatible with reagents. Studies suggest that potassium carbonate is useful in a wide array of applications such as in cold fusion experiments, as a buffering agent, and as a reagent removing carbon dioxide from ammonia. Furthermore, this strong inorganic base can be dissolved in organic solvents to produce anionic organic nucleophiles.
