Lithium methoxide LITHIUM METHOXIDE

Formula: CH₃OLi

Relative molecular weight (Formula weight): 37.98

Properties: White powder, because it is not easy to store, the general product is a colorless transparent solution containing less than 10% methanol. It is easy to volatilize and burn. It is easy to decompose from water to produce lithium hydroxide and make the solution turbid. It is toxic and should be stored in a sealed state. .

Uses: Usually used in organic synthesis reactions such as lipid exchange.
