Dichlorine reaction with carbonate

An oxidizer. The liquid is a sensitive explosive. Explosive reaction with carbon disulfide (when ignited), methanol (when ignited), pentacarbonyl iron (at 50°C), phosphine + oxygen, sodium diphenylketyl, dichlorine oxide, fluorine, nitrogen trichloride, ozone, perchloryl fluoride (at 100-300°C), vinyl chloride. Reacts to form explosive products with dienes (e.g., 1,3-butadiene, cyclopentadiene, propadiene). 

The reaction of carbon monoxide with lead(II) chloride is illustrated in Table 5.2 [168]. Thermal decomposition of the lead salt to give dichlorine, followed by reaction with carbon monoxide, could be responsible for the phosgene formation [781]. 

Anhydrous zirconium oxide chloride, ZrOCl2 [7699-43-6] has been prepared by the reaction of dichlorine oxide with a zirconium tetrachloride suspension in carbon tetrachloride starting at —30° C and slowly rising to room temperature. The white soHd is extremely hygroscopic and decomposes to ZrCl and Zr02 at 250°C (200). 

In the PPG-process, chlorine is reacted in a carbon dioxide stream with sodium carbonate to dichlorine monoxide and hypochlorous acid, which is dissolved in water. Reaction with a calcium hydroxide slurry yields calcium hypochlorite ... 

The thermal synthesis of phosgene involves the reaction of carbon monoxide with dichlorine Equation (5.1) induced by purely thermal, as opposed to catalytic (Section 5.1.3), means. 

In the reaction of sulfur(II) chloride with carbon monoxide, the co-product S2CI2, formed in addition to phosgene, may be reconverted using dichlorine into active SClj [142],... 

In the reactions of carbon monoxide with copper(II) chloride, nickel(II) chloride or silver(l) chloride, thermal decomposition of the salts to give dichlorine, followed by the... 

As is common for many of the reactions with metal oxides and phosgene, the reaction rate goes through a maximum at ca. 650 C, drops to a minimum at ca. 850 C, and then starts to rise again (see Fig. 9.10). This is reasonably explained in terms of phosgene dissociation into carbon monoxide and dichlorine (see Chapter 8) becoming appreciable at above 600 C,...
