Aluminium Chloride Anhydrous Extra Pure

 SHORT DESCRIPTION Aluminium Chloride Anhydrous Extra Pure is a high-purity, white to yellowish crystalline compound that is highly hygroscopic and fuming in moist air. It is extensively used in laboratory chemistry as a powerful Lewis acid catalyst, particularly in Friedel-Crafts alkylation and acylation reactions, as well as in the synthesis of organometallic compounds. Its anhydrous form ensures optimal reactivity and effectiveness in moisture-sensitive processes, including polymerization and halogenation studies. Due to its corrosive nature and tendency to react violently with water, it must be handled in a dry, controlled environment using proper safety measures. This extra pure grade is ideal for high-precision analytical and preparative procedures in organic and inorganic chemistry research.

Anhydrous Aluminum Chloride Extra Pure

  • SHORT DESCRIPTION
Anhydrous Aluminum Chloride Extra Pure is a high-purity, white to pale yellow crystalline compound widely used in laboratory chemistry as a powerful Lewis acid catalyst. It plays a key role in organic synthesis, particularly in Friedel–Crafts alkylation and acylation reactions, and is essential in the study of electrophilic aromatic substitution mechanisms. Due to its extreme moisture sensitivity, it hydrolyzes rapidly upon exposure to air, releasing hydrogen chloride gas, and must be handled under strictly dry conditions. The extra pure grade ensures low levels of impurities, making it suitable for high-precision research and moisture-sensitive experimental work. It should be stored in airtight, moisture-free containers in a cool, dry environment, preferably under an inert atmosphere.
