Beschreibung

Germaniumtetrachloride (GeCl4) is a thermal expansion agent that is used in the production of boron nitride and zirconium oxide. It is also used as a catalyst for hydrochloric acid and hydroxyl group reactions. GeCl4 has carcinogenic potential, but this has not been confirmed in animal studies. GeCl4 is an effective solid catalyst for the reaction of hydrogen chloride with ethylene oxide to form polyethylene glycols. The mechanism of this reaction involves a substitution reaction between the chlorine ion and the hydroxyl group on the catalyst surface, forming chlorohydrocarbonate ions, which react with ethylene oxide to form polymer chains. This process can be carried out at room temperature or below, without using any solvents or catalysis promoters such as mercury or sulfur dioxide.
