Sodium dihydrogen arsenate pyroarsenate salt NaHAsO. Sodium dihydrogen arsenate Sodium dihydrogen arsenate is the inorganic compound with the formula NaHAsO. Related salts are also called sodium arsenate, including NaHAsO (disodium hydrogen arsenate) and NaHAsO (sodium dihydrogen arsenate). Sodium dihydrogen arsenate is a colorless solid that is highly toxic. The salt is the conjugate base of arsenic acid: In the laboratory, it is prepared in this way, crystallizing from a hot saturated aqueous solution, where it is highly soluble when hot (75.3 g in 100 mL at 100 °C). It is obtained as the monohydrate. Upon heating, solid NaHAsOHO, loses water of crystallization and
Dihydrogen complex variety of related complexes such as Cr(H)(CO) and [Fe(H)(H)(dppe)]. Kubas et al.'s findings also led to a reevaluation of previously described compounds. For example, the complex "RuH(PPh)" described in 1968 was reformulated as a dihydrogen complex. Dihydrogen complex Dihydrogen complexes are coordination complexes containing intact H as a ligand. The prototypical complex is W(CO)(PCy)(H). This class of compounds represent intermediates in metal-catalyzed reactions involving hydrogen. Hundreds of dihydrogen complexes have been reported. Most examples are cationic transition metals complexes with octahedral geometry. Upon complexation, the H−H bond is extended to 0.81–0.82 Å as indicated by neutron diffraction, about a 10%
