Oxalyl chloride Chemical Properties,Uses,Production

Chemical Properties

colourless liquid with a pungent odour

Uses

Oxalyl Chloride is used in the preparation of cardiolipin analogs which induce peroxidase activity by Cytochrome C. It is also used in the preparation of fluorescent indicators for cytosolic calcium.

Application

Oxalyl chloride is used in organic synthesis. It may be used in the following processes:
Unncatalyzed reaction of silyl ketene acetals with oxalyl chloride yeilds symmetrical pulvinic acids.
Catalytic syntheses of N-heterocyclic ynones and ynediones by in situ activation of carboxylic acids with oxalyl chloride.
Oxalyl chloride was reportedly used in the first synthesis of dioxane tetraketone.
Preparation of Mosher′s acid chloride by reacting with Mosher′s acid in the presence of DMF.
Activation of dimethyl sulfoxide for use in the oxidation of long-chain alcohols to carbonyls.
Activation of α-keto carboxylic acids and N-heterocyclic carboxylic acids for alkynylation to form ynediones and N-heterocyclic ynones, respectively.

Production Methods

Oxalyl Chloride is produced by the reaction of anhydrous oxalic acid and phosphorus pentachloride.

Reactions

Oxalyl Chloride vigorously reacts with water, alcohols, and amines, and is employed for the synthesis of agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and fine chemicals.

General Description

Oxalyl chloride is a commonly used chlorinating reagent that can be prepared by the reaction of oxalic acid and phosphorus pentachloride.

Safety Profile

Poison. Violently decomposed by water and alcohol. Severe irritant to skin, eyes, respiratory tract. Explodeson contact with dimethyl sulfoxide. Forms shock-sensitive explosive mixtures with potassium or with K-Na alloy. Will react with water or steam to
