CAS 7446-70-0: Aluminum chloride
Description:Aluminum chloride, with the CAS number 7446-70-0, is an inorganic compound composed of aluminum and chlorine. It typically appears as a white or yellowish solid, and it is highly hygroscopic, meaning it readily absorbs moisture from the air. This compound is known for its ability to form complexes and is often used as a Lewis acid in various chemical reactions, particularly in organic synthesis and catalysis. Aluminum chloride can exist in several forms, including anhydrous and hydrated states, with the anhydrous form being more reactive. It has a high melting point and is soluble in polar solvents, such as water and alcohols, but insoluble in nonpolar solvents. In addition to its industrial applications, such as in the production of aluminum metal and in the manufacture of certain dyes and pharmaceuticals, aluminum chloride is also utilized in water treatment processes and as an antiperspirant in personal care products. However, it should be handled with care due to its potential irritant properties.
