Potassium peroxomonosulfate is an inorganic chemical compound of potassium from the group of sulfates and the potassium salt of peroxomonosulfuric acid .
Extraction and presentation
Potassium peroxomonosulfate can be obtained by reacting potassium carbonate or potassium hydroxide with peroxomonosulfuric acid .
properties
Potassium peroxomonosulfate is a crystalline white odorless solid that is readily soluble in water. It decomposes when heated above approx. 90 ° C. Its aqueous solution reacts strongly acidic. There is also a monohydrate with a monoclinic crystal structure .
use
Potassium peroxomonosulfate is used as an oxidizing agent in chemical synthesis, as a disinfectant in swimming pools, in medicine and in water treatment, as a bleaching and cleaning additive for textiles and dentures and as a caustic agent for surface treatment. It is also used to make the wool shrink-proof. The triple salt of potassium peroxomonosulfate, potassium hydrogen sulfate and potassium sulfate 2KHSO 5 · KHSO 4 · K 2 SO 4 is also sold under the name Oxone or Caroat . This is used for the halogenation of a, b-unsaturated carbonyl compounds and for the catalytic production of hypervalent iodine compounds for alcohol oxidation and for the synthesis of oxaziridines and dioxiranes such as dimethyldioxirane . This is the basis of Shi epoxidation .
