Hydroxylamine Uses

 Hydroxylamine (CAS NO.7803-49-8) and its salts are commonly used as reducing agents in a myriad of organic and inorganic reactions. They can also act as antioxidants for fatty acids. Some non-chemical uses include removal of hair from animal hides and photography developing solutions. It can also be used to highly selectively cleave asparaginyl-glycine peptide bonds in peptides and proteins. It also bonds to and permanently disables (poisons) heme-containing enzymes. It is used as an irreversible inhibitor of the oxygen-evolving complex of photosynthesis on account of its similar structure to water.

Hydroxylamine Production

 NH2OH can be synthesized via several routes.
The first route is via Raschig synthesis: aqueous ammonium nitrite is reduced by HSO4 and SO2 at 0°C to yield a hydroxylamido-N,N-disulfate anion:
NH4NO2 + 2 SO2 + NH3 + H2O → 2 NH4+ + N(OH)(OSO2)22
This anion is then hydrolyzed to give (NH3OH)2SO4:
N(OH)(OSO2)22+ H2O → NH(OH)(OSO2)− + HSO4
2 NH(OH)(OSO2)− + 2 H2O → (NH3OH)2SO4
Solid NH2OH can be collected by treatment with liquid ammonia. Ammonium sulfate, (NH4)2SO4, a side-product insoluble in liquid ammonia, is removed by filtration; the liquid ammonia is evaporated to give the desired product.Another route is to make hydroxylammonium salts which can then be converted to hydroxylamine.
(NH3OH)Cl + NaOBu → NH2OH + NaCl + BuOH
Hydroxylamine can also be produced by the reduction of nitrous acid or potassium nitrate with bisulfite:
HNO2 + 2 HSO3 → N(OH)(OSO2)22+ H2O → NH(OH)(OSO2) + HSO4
NH(OH)(OSO2) + H3O+ (100 °C/1 h) → NH3(OH)+ + HSO4

Hydroxylamine Specification

General description about Hydroxylamine (CAS NO.7803-49-8) ,it is a odorless white crystalline solid. Sinks and mixes with water.
Air & Water Reactions: Decomposes rapidly at room temperature or when dissolved in hot water by internal oxidation-reduction. Reacts with water or steam to produce heat and corrosive liquids.
Reactivity Profile: It is a white solid, thermally unstable, decomposes rapidly at room temperature or when dissolved in hot water by internal oxidation-reduction. It should be stored below 10° C [Bailar, 1973, vol. 2, p. 272]. Explosive reaction with strong oxidizers (chromium trioxide, potassium dichromate) or powdered zinc upon heat. Reaction with zinc or calcium produces explosive bishydroxylamides. It ignites on contact with cupric sulfate, alkali metals (sodium, potassium), oxidants (e.g., barium oxide, barium peroxide, lead dioxide, potassium permanganate, chlorine), phosphorus trichloride and pentachloride. It reacts vigorously with hypochlorites, pyridine, carbonyls [Sax, 9th ed., 1996, p. 1875]. On contact with organic materials in thin layer (e.g., crystals on filter paper), it may ignite spontaneously in air. It explodes when heated above 70° C [Brauer, 1963, vol. 1, p. 502]. During a distillation process, an explosion occurred. Potassium hydroxide is thought to be involved in the explosion. Employees in the plant complained of chest pains and suffered chemical burns. Five people were killed by the explosion.
Health Hazard: Inhalation: Moderately toxic by inhalation and oral routes with the following symptoms possible: headache, vertigo, tinnitus, dyspnea, nausea and vomiting, cyanosis, proteinuria and hematuria, jaundice, restlessness, and convulsion. Methemoglobinemia has been reported. Eyes: Corrosive - highly irritating. Skin: Irritating or corrosive to skin. Ingestion: Moderately toxic by inhalation and oral routes with the following symptoms possible; headache, vertigo, tinnitus, dyspnea, nausea and vomiting, cyanosis, proteinuria and hematuria, jaundice, restlessness, and convulsion. Methemoglobinemia has been reported.
