Epsom Salts Monorail however, is inside the Death Valley National Park and accessible via the Fort Irwin Army Base near Tecopa. The sidings of the Trona Railway can be reached by an unsurfaced track from California Highway 178. If carriages are parked on the sidings, these are easy to spot. There are some concrete foundations and ruins of houses in the area. Epsom Salts Monorail The Epsom Salts Monorail or Magnesium Monorail was a short-lived Lartigue Monorail in San Bernardino County, California, in the United States. It was built to carry epsomite (hydrated magnesium sulphate) from a deposit in the Owlshead Mountains to
Magnesium iodide oxide. Another method to prepare MgI is mixing powdered elemental iodine and magnesium metal. In order to obtain anhydrous MgI, the reaction should be conducted in a strictly anhydrous atmosphere; dry-diethyl ether can be used as a solvent. Usage of magnesium iodide in the Baylis-Hillman reaction tends to give (Z)-vinyl compounds. Magnesium iodide Magnesium iodide is the name for the chemical compounds with the formulas MgI and its various hydrates MgI(HO). These salts are typical ionic halides, being highly soluble in water. Magnesium iodide has few commercial uses, but can be used to prepare compounds for organic synthesis. Magnesium iodide
