| Cupric Chloride Dihydrate Usage And Synthesis |
Physical properties | Copper 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.
| Uses | Cupric Chloride Dihydrate is industrially produced for use as a co-catalyst in the Wacker process.
| Preparation | Cupric 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.
