Description

General description

Lithium hydroxide monohydrate is a hydrate of alkali metal hydroxide. Its IR spectral analysis has been reported. A refinement of its crystal structure has been described. Its crystals exhibit monoclinic crystal system and C2/m space group. It can be prepared by reacting Li metal with H₂O, followed by the evaporation of the aqueous solution.

Application

Lithium hydroxide monohydrate (LiOH.H₂O) may be employed as a catalyst during the melt transesterification of diphenyl carbonate and bisphenol A. Kinetics of this transesterification reaction have been investigated.
