Thionyl chloride is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula SOCl 2.It is a moderately volatile, colourless liquid with an unpleasant acrid odour.Thionyl chloride is primarily used as a chlorinating reagent, with approximately 45,000 tonnes (50,000 short tons) per year being produced during the early 1990s, [5] but is occasionally also used as a solvent.
A typical representative organic reaction displaying this mechanism is the chlorination of alcohols with thionyl chloride, or the decomposition of alkyl chloroformates, the main feature is retention of stereochemical configuration. Some examples for this reaction were reported by Edward S. Lewis and Charles E. Boozer in 1952. [2]
Acetyl chloride was first prepared in 1852 by French chemist Charles Gerhardt by treating potassium acetate with phosphoryl chloride. [4]Acetyl chloride is produced in the laboratory by the reaction of acetic acid with chlorodehydrating agents such as phosphorus trichloride (PCl 3), phosphorus pentachloride (PCl 5), sulfuryl chloride (SO 2 Cl 2), phosgene, or thionyl chloride (SOCl 2).
Maleic acid has a heat of combustion of -1,355 kJ/mol., [5] 22.7 kJ/mol higher than that of fumaric acid. Maleic acid is more soluble in water than fumaric acid. The melting point of maleic acid (135 °C) is also much lower than that of fumaric acid (287 °C). As confirmed by X-ray crystallography, maleic acid is planar.
3,5-Dinitrobenzoyl chloride (C 7 H 3 ClN 2 O 5) is an organic compound with a melting point of 68–69 °C. [1] It is the acyl chloride of 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid and like it is mainly used in the analysis of organic substances by derivatization .
It is prepared by treating aniline with thionyl chloride: [4] 3 PhNH 2 + SOCl 2 → PhNSO + 2 [PhNH 3]Cl. X-ray crystallographic analysis confirms that N-sulfinylaniline is structurally related to sulfur dioxide as well as sulfur diimide. The C–S=N=O dihedral angle is –1.60°. [5]
TCFH itself is a common reagent used in the preparation of uronium and guanidinium salts used for amide bond formation and peptide synthesis, such as HATU. [3] [4] [5]Amide bond formation with TCFH can be performed in a wide range of organic solvents, most commonly acetonitrile, but also water [6] and in the solid state. [7]
Methylphosphonyl dichloride is produced by oxidation of methyldichlorophosphine, with sulfuryl chloride: [3]. CH 3 PCl 2 + SO 2 Cl 2 → CH 3 P(O)Cl 2 + SOCl 2. It can also be produced from a range of methylphosphonates (e.g. dimethyl methylphosphonate) via chlorination with thionyl chloride.
