ABOUT THE PRODUCT
Product Description
Product Description-CERIUM(III) CHLORIDE CAS#7790-86-5
Cerium(III) chloride is a colorless, deliquescent block crystal/powder (white crystalline particles). It quickly absorbs moisture in humid air to form hydrates of variable compositions. Readily soluble in water, ethanol and acetone, it shows favorable solubility in aqueous and common organic solvents.
Product Applications-CERIUM(III) CHLORIDE CAS#7790-86-5
Cerium(III) chloride is widely applied to produce metallic cerium and other cerium salts. It acts as a petroleum catalyst and Lewis acid for organic synthesis.
It is a precursor for cerium trifluoromethanesulfonate, a Lewis acid used in Friedel-Crafts acylation. Cerium(III) chloride itself serves as a Lewis acid for Friedel-Crafts alkylation.
Besides, cerium(III) chloride heptahydrate together with sodium borohydride works as the reagent for Luche reduction, a standard method to reduce α,β-unsaturated ketones in organic synthesis.
