Technology Process of Ferrous Chloride

There total 3 articles about Ferrous Chloride which guide to synthetic route it. The literature collected by LookChem mainly comes from the sharing of users and the free literature resources found by Internet computing technology. We keep the original model of the professional version of literature to make it easier and faster for users to retrieve and use. At the same time, we analyze and calculate the most feasible synthesis route with the highest yield for your reference as below:

synthetic route:

Reference yield:

hydrogenchloride (7647-01-0,15364-23-5) + iron (7439-89-6) → iron(II)chloride (7758-94-3)

Guidance literature:

In neat (no solvent); isolation in N2 solid matrix;

DOI:10.1063/1.466725

Reference yield:

iron (7439-89-6) + silver(I) chloride → iron(II)chloride (7758-94-3)

Guidance literature:

In solid matrix; mixt. of metal (tenfold excess) and AgCl heated in Ar (400 Torr) until react. was complete; cooled, evacuated, co-condensed with solid matrix (N2, Ar);

DOI:10.1016/0009-2614(91)90088-Q

Reference yield:

iron monochloride (27846-09-9) + chromium (II) chloride (10049-05-5) → chromium monochloride (49681-65-4) + iron(II)chloride (7758-94-3)
