General description

Thallium(I) acetate (TlOAc) is a white crystalline compound with moderate water solubility, commonly used in specialized chemical synthesis and material science. Its unique Lewis acid-base properties (boron as Lewis acid, amine as Lewis base) and reactivity make it valuable in catalysis and energy applications. Due to its hazardous nature, it requires careful handling.

Application

Thallium(I) acetate can be used as:
  • A thallium precursor in sol-gel methods to synthesize Tl-2212 (Tl₂Ba₂CaCu₂O₈₋δ) superconducting films.
  • A catalyst in organic synthesis, facilitating reactions such as the conversion of alkenes to alkynes under controlled conditions. This application is supported by its role in specialized catalytic cycles.
  • A precursor in material science for synthesizing thallium-containing compounds, including optical glasses and high-density solutions for ore separation processes.

The effect of alpha-tocopherol on the lipid fluidity of porcine intestinal brush-border membranes was studied using pyrene as a fluorescent probe. Addition of alpha-tocopherol to the medium decreased fluorescence intensity and lifetime, but increased the fluorescence polarization of pyrene-labeled membranes.
