CAS 10241-05-1: Molybdenum pentachloride

Description: Molybdenum pentachloride (MoCl5) is an inorganic compound characterized by its dark brown to black solid form at room temperature. It is a highly reactive and hygroscopic substance, meaning it readily absorbs moisture from the air. MoCl5 is known for its strong Lewis acidity, making it a useful reagent in various chemical reactions, particularly in the synthesis of organometallic compounds and as a catalyst in organic transformations. The compound typically exhibits a distorted octahedral geometry around the molybdenum center, influenced by the presence of five chloride ligands. Due to its reactivity, it can hydrolyze in the presence of water, leading to the formation of molybdenum oxides and hydrochloric acid. Molybdenum pentachloride is primarily utilized in research and industrial applications, including the production of molybdenum-based materials and in the field of coordination chemistry. Safety precautions are necessary when handling this compound, as it can be corrosive and pose health hazards if inhaled or ingested.
