Diphosphoryl chloride (DPCl) is a chemical compound that is used in the Friedel-Crafts reaction, which converts alkenes to epoxides. This compound can be obtained by reacting methyl ethyl chloride with phosphorus pentachloride and potassium hexafluorophosphate. The reaction mechanism for DPCl involves the transfer of a chlorine atom from one molecule to another, followed by the release of hydrogen fluoride. Diphosphoryl chloride is also used as an analog for phosphoryl chloride in studies on herpes simplex virus.
