HOW THIS BOOK SHOULD BE USED
Substances have been entered under their respective chapters, sections and subsections. In
these sections compounds have been entered in alphabetical order according to the more
commonly used name. However, because compounds can be named differently (some of
these other names have been included in brackets after their entries) and may be difficult to
find, it is advisable to obtain the page number of the entry from the Chemical Abstracts
Registry Numbers (CASRNs) Index at the end of the book. CASRNs of substances are
readily obtained from “SciFinder”, or better, from any commercial catalogue that sells these
compounds, as almost all of these have CASRNs inserted after the names of their products.
Also, in this book we could not insert some substances that can be formally included in more
than one section without repeating the entry. In such cases the compounds are entered in a
preferred section and are cross-referenced by inserting “see [CASRN]” or just “[CASRN]”.
Thus the cross-reference is its CASRN. The CASRNs Index provides the page numbers in
bold/italic type. If the CASRN of a desired substance is not in the CASRN Index, or its full
or abbreviated name is not in the General Index, then it will not be present in this book.
CASRNs are unique for each chemical substance and are such that they are internally
consistent. They are set up according to a specific formula. Refer to the first page of the
CASRNs Index to calculate the formula in order to check whether the number is a valid
number or not.

Preface to the Seventh Edition
THE SALES of the sixth edition, which appeared in April 2009, were high by about October 2009, and one of us
(WLFA) was approached by Ms Melanie Benson, Editorial Project Manager of Elsevier Science & Technology
Books (who was mainly responsible for the production of the 6th edition), about writing a 7th edition within 2–3
years. In the past, 6–9 years were allowed to lapse between editions. However, the attraction this time, was that we
were allowed to increase the size of the work by up to 249 pages. This has given us the opportunity to update all the
previous chapters in the light of current thinking on safety (personal and environmental), and to introduce two new
chapters. The award of five Nobel Prizes in the past ten years or so in Chemistry and one in Physics, of which three
were awarded for work on
Catalysis
and
the catalytic process
(2001, 2005 and 2010), and two for work on
Nanomaterials and Nanotechnology
(1996, 2010) have prompted us to write a new chapter on
Catalysts
and a new
chapter on
Nanomaterials and Nanotechnology.
Chemical suppliers have now made commercially available a large
number of catalysts as well as many nanomaterials of various sorts. Since the number of commercially available
catalysts are currently considerably larger than that of nanomaterials, the chapter on Catalysts is larger than that on
Nanomaterials and Nanotechnology, and had to be divided into two parts. The availability, preparation and
purification of a large range of these, are presented in these chapters. The other chapters have been updated and
expanded, also in keeping with the purpose of all previous editions which is to provide information for the
purification of commercially available laboratory materials. Of course, the General Subjects Index and the
Chemical Abstracts Registry Numbers (CASRNs) Index increased in size accordingly. Much of the cross-
referencing is done
via
CASRNs and a page of how to use this book through these is included before Chapter 1 to
assist the reader, not only to locate the pages where the required CASRNs are to be found, but also to let the reader
know whether a particular substance is included in this work. CASRNs can be readily obtained from chemical
catalogues or from SciFinder.
We would like to acknowledge Professor Martin Banwell FAA (Director, Research School of Chemistry, ANU) for
his generosity in allowing the use of IT services, and to Dr Emil Mittag (Research School of Chemistry, ANU) for
editing and updating the
Macro
program used for making the CASRNs Index.
We are greatly indebted to many people who have made valuable and constructive comments, and indicated errors,
in previous editions. The continued help from Joe Papa of BS MS (EXAXOL in Clearwater, Florida, USA) with the
preparation and purification of several inorganic compounds, particularly beryllium and cerium, is appreciated and
gratefully acknowledged.
One of us (W.L.F.A) owes a debt of gratitude to Professor Jill E. Gready (John Curtin School of Medical Research,
ANU) for her continued encouragement and for strongly supporting a Visiting Fellowship over a period of many
years.
We thank Dr Pauline M. Armarego for assistance in the painstaking task of proofreading and correcting
typographical errors as well as checking the General Index and the CASRNs Index.
We thank the ANU library and its staff, both on campus and at the ANU Print Repository, for their prompt and
unfailing assistance.
