INTRODUCTION
Sodium perchlorate monohydrate is the inorganic compound with the chemical formula NaClO4•H2O. It is the common existence form of sodium perchlorate, which can gradually absorb water in the air to form the monohydrate. Sodium perchlorate monohydrate is white rhombic crystal which is highly soluble in water and in alcohol. Its capacity to undergo redox reactions, liberating oxygen atoms, has been harnessed in the preparation of specialty chemicals, including pharmaceutical intermediates and fine chemicals.
Manufacture
Sodium perchlorate is produced by anodic oxidation of sodium chlorate (NaClO3) at an inert electrode, such as platinum.

Tert-Amyl Alcohol (TAA) also known as 2-Methyl-2-butanol, is a branched-chain alcohol. It is a colorless, flammable liquid with a mild alcoholic odor and moderate water solubility. Due to its unique structural properties, it is widely used as basic organic chemical in synthetic fragrances, pharmaceuticals and pigment industries.
Lithium orotate is a compound consisting of lithium, an alkali metal, and orotic acid, a natural substance involved in nucleic acid metabolism. It is a popular dietary supplement due to its potential neuroprotective and mood-stabilizing effects.
Quinuclidinone Hydrochloride is a derivative of bicyclic amine quinuclidine. The hydrochloride form of quinuclidinone is the salt form, often used for its stability in different reactions. Quinuclidinone Hydrochloride is typically used as an intermediate in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and other chemical products.
Potassium benzoate (E212), the potassium salt of benzoic acid, is a food preservative used to prevent the growth of mold, yeast and some bacteria. It works best in low-pH products, below 4.5, where it exists as benzoic acid.
n-Hexyllithium in hexane solution (HxLi) is an organolithium compound primarily used in organic synthesis as a strong base, alkylating agent, and lithiation reagent. It is particularly effective in the deprotonation of weakly acidic compounds. Handling n-Hexyllithium requires strict safety precautions due to its highly reactive nature, particularly due to its sensitivity to moisture, air, and heat.
