Cupric Chloride Dihydrate Usage And Synthesis
Physical propertiesCopper Chloride Dihydrate appears as a green crystalline powder with no odor and occurs naturally as the mineral eriochalcite. It is soluble in Water, Alcohol, and Acetone at ambient conditions.
UsesCupric Chloride Dihydrate is industrially produced for use as a co-catalyst in the Wacker process.
PreparationCupric chloride dihydrate can be produced either by the reaction of copper with chlorine or by combining copper carbonate with Hydrochloric Acid.
Chemical Reactivity

When heated to decomposition, cupric chloride dihydrate emits toxic fumes of hydrogen chloride gas and copper oxides.

Structure and conformation

In Cupric Chloride Dihydrate, the copper again adopts a highly distorted octahedral geometry, the Cu(II) centers being surrounded by two water ligands and four chloride ligands, which bridge asymmetrically to other Cu centers.

Toxicity

Cupric Chloride Dihydrate can be toxic. If copper chloride is absorbed, it results in headache, diarrhea, a drop in blood pressure, and fever. Ingestion of large amounts may induce copper poisoning, CNS disorders, and haemolysis.
