KOH, like NaOH, serves as a source of OH −, a highly nucleophilic anion that attacks polar bonds in both inorganic and organic materials. Aqueous KOH saponifies esters: KOH + RCOOR' → RCOOK + R'OH. When R is a long chain, the product is called a potassium soap.
Potassium metal can react violently with water producing KOH and hydrogen gas. 2 K(s) + 2 H 2 O(l) → 2 KOH(aq) + H 2 (g)↑ A reaction of potassium metal with water. Hydrogen is produced, and with potassium vapor, burns with a pink or lilac flame. Strongly alkaline potassium hydroxide is formed in solution.
