Its EINECS registry number is 208-914-3. This chemical's molecular formula is C₂H₃LiO₂ and molecular weight is 65.99. Its IUPAC name is called lithium acetate. Lithium acetate is used in the laboratory as buffer for gel electrophoresis of DNA and RNA.

Physical properties of Lithium acetate: (1)ACD/LogP: -0.29; (2)# of Rule of 5 Violations: 0; (3)ACD/LogD (pH 5.5): -1.07; (4)ACD/LogD (pH 7.4): -2.86; (5)ACD/BCF (pH 5.5): 1; (6)ACD/BCF (pH 7.4): 1; (7)ACD/KOC (pH 5.5): 2.73; (8)ACD/KOC (pH 7.4): 1; (9)#H bond acceptors: 2; (10)#H bond donors: 1; (11)Flash Point: 40 °C; (12)Enthalpy of Vaporization: 23.7 kJ/mol; (13)Boiling Point: 117.1 °C at 760 mmHg; (14)Vapour Pressure: 13.9 mmHg at 25°C.

Uses of Lithium acetate: it can be used to produce trans-4-Acetoxy-3-bromo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroacridine. This reaction will need reagent N-bromoacetamide and solvent acetic acid. The reaction time is 4 hours at ambient temperature. The yield is about 85%.

Uses of Lithium acetate: Lithium acetate is used in the laboratory as buffer for gel electrophoresis of DNA and RNA. It has a lower electrical conductivity and can be run at higher speeds than can gels made from TAE buffer (5-30V/cm as compared to 5-10V/cm). Lithium boric acid or sodium boric acid are usually preferable to lithium acetate or TAE when analyzing smaller fragments of DNA (less than 500 bp) due to the higher resolution of borate-based buffers in this size range as compared to acetate buffers. Lithium acetate is also used to permeabilize the cell wall of yeast for use in DNA transformation.
