Lewisite dichloride

Blister agents, which cause burns on the skin such as sulfur mustard gas, l,l -thiobis[2-chloroethane] (HD), and lewisite, (2-chloroethenyl) arsenous dichloride (L).

As an example we can look at the hydrolysis of Lewisite-1 (or 2-chlorovinylarseneous dichloride) according to equations 6 to 8 [56]. Subsequently, the adsorbed HCl will react with the copper ions of the impregnation according to reaction 9. The other hydrolysis products are all large molecules, some being solids, and are very well retained on the carbon physisorption.

LEWISITE. A group of three closely related chlorovinyl arsine chemicals lewisite-1 (2-chlorovinyl arsine dichloride, CjHjAsClj), lewisite-2 ( /s[2-chlorovinyl] arsine chloride, C4H4ASCI3), and lewisite-3 (tns[2-chlorovinyl] arsine, CgH AsClg). Lewisite-1 was the intended product of lewisite production, but the other two were often present as by-products. Therefore, lewisite is commonly used to refer to lewisite-1 alone. The name honors Winford Lee Lewis (1878-1943), who took credit for their original synthesis and characterization in April 1918.
