  1. Sodium Ethoxide

  2. Sodium Ethoxide Sodium ethoxide, also known as Sodium ethylate, is a type of non-toxic, alkoxide salt which can come in both powder form as well as in solution with ethanol.

  3. Sodium Ethoxide Chemical Formula The chemical formula for Sodium ethoxide is C2H5ONA.Here is a look at the distribution of ions in Sodium Ethoxide. The left image is the ball and stick model of the ethoxide anion while the one in the right is that of sodium cation.

  4. Sodium Ethoxide Preparation Synthesis of Sodium ethoxide can be done by chemically reacting sodium hydroxide or sodium metal with ethyl alcohol. This helps to create Sodium ethoxide in a liquid form. 2 C2H5OH + 2 Na → 2 C2H5ONa + H2

  5. A reaction between sodium hydroxide and anhydrous ethanol gives us Sodium ethoxide combined with water. We can then remove the water by using a drying agent and it will leave us with Sodium ethoxide having greater purity. C2H5OH + NaOH ⇌ C2H5ONa + H2O • The solid or powdered form of Sodium ethoxide is yellow in color.

  6. Sodium Ethoxide Applications Sodium ethoxide is one of the components used to synthesize diethyl ester of malonic acid apart from ethyl ester. Sodium ethoxide is also used in Claisen condensation.
