GERMANIUM(IV) CHLORIDE Chemical Properties,Uses,Production

Chemical Properties

Colorless liquid. decomposes in water. Insoluble in concentrated hydrochloric acid; soluble in carbon disulfide, chloroform, benzene, alcohol, and ether.

Physical properties

Colorless liquid; density 1.879 g/cm3 at 20°C and 1.844 g/cm3 at 30°C; refractive index 1.464; boils at 86.5°C; solidifies at -49.5°C; decomposes in water; soluble in alcohol, ether, benzene, chloroform and carbon tetrachloride; insoluble in concentrated hydrochloric and sulfuric acids.

Uses

Germanium(IV) chloride is used in the microwave preparation of Ge2Cl6, a colorless crystalline material which was included in a further study of low-valent germanium compounds.1
Germanium(IV) chloride is used in the preparation of many germanium compounds.

Hazard

Toxic material

Safety Profile

Poison by intravenous route. Mddly toxic by inhalation. A skin, severe eye, and mucous membrane irritant. Will react violently with water or steam to produce toxic and corrosive fumes. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of Cl-. See also GERMANIUM COMPOUNDS.

Purification Methods

Traces of Cl2 and HCl can be removed from the liquid by blowing dry air through it for a few hours at room temperature or by shaking it with Hg or Hg2Cl2 and then fractionating it in a vacuum. It decomposes on heating at 950o. It has a sharp penetrating odour and fumes in moist air to give a chalky coat of GeO2. It is slowly hydrolysed by H2O to give GeO2, but distils from conc HCl.

Glass powder (100-300 mesh). Washed with 10% HNO3, water and dry in air.
