Uses
Different sources of media describe the Uses of 10025-67-9 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. Sulfur chloride is a solvent for sulfur and a chlorinating agent. Other applications are vulcanizing rubber; an intermediate in making sulfur dyes, synthetic rubber, thionyl chloride, and several other compounds; pesticide formulations; hardening soft woods; and extracting gold.
2. Disulfur dichloride is used as Intermediate and chlorinating agent in the manufacture of organic chemicals, sulfur dyes, insecticides, synthetic rubbers; in cold vulcanization of rubber; as polymerization catalyst for vegetable oils; for hardening soft woods. The chemical fiber industry is used as a finishing agent for the manufacture of fabrics. The metallurgical industry is used as an extraction agent for precious and rare metals such as gold and silver.
Preparation
Sulfur chloride is prepared as an orange liquid by passing chlorine gas through molten sulfur. If excess chlorine is passed and in the presence of a trace FeCl3 or iodine as catalyst, an equilibrium mixture of about 85% dichloride, SCl2 , and 15% S2Cl2 is obtained. The dichloride dissociates to sulfur chloride:
2SCl2 ? S2Cl2 + Cl2
Sulfur chloride is separated by fractional distillation.
Toxicity
Sulfur chloride is toxic and a lachrymator. The vapors can cause irritation of the eyes, nose, and respiratory tract.
Chemical Properties
Disulfur dichloride is a fuming, oily liquid with a yellowish-red to amber color and a suffocating odor. Soluble in alcohol, ether, benzene, carbon disulfide, and amyl acetate; decomposes on contact withwater. Combustible. It has an added hazard since it oxidizes and hydrolyzes to sulfur dioxide and hydrogen chloride.
Definition
Disulfur dichloride is a red fuming liquid with a strong smell. It is prepared by passing chlorine over molten sulfur and is used to harden rubber.
General Description
Sulfur monochloride appears as a yellow-red, oily, fuming liquid with a sharp odor. Contact or ingestion causes irritation or chemical burns to skin, eyes, and mucous membranes. Also poisonous by inhalation of vapors.
Health Hazard
Sulfur monochloride is an irritant
of the eyes, mucous membranes, and skin.
On contact with water, it decomposes to
form hydrogen chloride and sulfur dioxide;
because this occurs rapidly, it acts primarily as
an upper respiratory irritant and does not ordinarily
reach the lungs. However, exposure to
high concentrations may cause pulmonary
edema.
Flammability and Explosibility
Nonflammable
Safety Profile
Poison by ingestion and inhalation. A fuming, corrosive liquid very irritating to shin, eyes, and mucous membranes. It decomposes on contact with water to form the highly irritating hydrogen chloride, thiosulfuric acid, and sulfur. Its toxic effects are irritating to the upper respiratory tract, although the results of intoxication are usually transitory in nature. However, if hydrolysis is not complete in the upper respiratory tract, injury to the broncholes and alveoli can result. A fire hazard when in contact with organic matter, P203, Na2O2, water, Cr(OCl)2. Combustible when exposed to heat or flame. Will react with water or steam to produce heat and toxic and corrosive fumes. Can react with oxidizing materials. To fight fire, use CO2, dry chemical. When heated to decomposition it emits highly toxic fumes of Cland SOX.
Potential Exposure
Sulfur chloride finds use as a chlorinating agent, catalyst, and as an intermediate in the manufacture of organic chemicals; carbon tetrachloride; sulfur dyes; insecticides, synthetic rubber; and pharmaceuticals. Exposure may also occur during the extraction of gold, purification of sugar juice; finishing and dyeing textiles; processing vegetable oils; hardening wood; and vulcanization of rubber. Has been used as a military poison.
Shipping
UN1828 Sulfur chlorides, Hazard class: 8; Labels: 8-Corrosive material, Potential Inhalation Hazard (Special Provision 5)
Purification Methods
It isa pungent, irritating golden yellow liquid. When impure its colour is orange to red due to SCl2 formed. It fumes in moist air and liberates HCl, SO2 and H2S in the presence of H2O. Distil it and collect the fraction boiling above 137o at atmospheric pressure. Fractionate this fraction over sulfur at ca 12mm using a ground glass apparatus (b 29-30o). Alternatively purify it by distillation below 60o from a mixture containing sulfur (2%) and activated charcoal (1%), under reduced pressure (e.g. 50mm). It is soluble in EtOH, *C6H6, Et2O, CS2 and CCl4. Store it in a closed container in the dark in a refrigerator. [Fehér in Handbook of Preparative Inorganic Chemistry (Ed. Brauer) Academic Press Vol I p 371 1963.] HARMFUL VAPOURS.
Incompatibilities
Decomposes violently in water, forming hydrochloric acid, sulfur dioxide; sulfur, sulfite, thiosulfate, and hydrogen sulfide. Reacts with oxidizers, strong bases; peroxides, phosphorus oxides; organics, antimony, antimony sulfide; arsenic sulfide; mercury oxide; tin, alkenes, terpenes, unsaturated glycerides; chromyl chloride; methyl sulfoxide; dimethylformamide, acetone, and other compounds; causing fire and explosion hazard. Corrosive to many metals in presence of water. Attacks some plastics, rubber and coatings.
Waste Disposal
Wearing protective equipment, spray carefully onto sodium ash/slaked lime mixture. Then spray with water, dilute, neutralize and flush to drain.
Precautions
Sulfur monochloride is minimally corrosive to carbon steel and iron when dry. When wet, it behaves like hydrochloric acid and attacks steel, cast iron, aluminum, stainless steels, copper and copper alloys, and many nickel-based materials.

Synthesis and structure of W3S4Cl4
Rauch,DiSalvo,Zhou,Tang,Edwards
, p. 253 - 264 (1992)
The synthesis of W3S4Cl4, a layered tungsten thiohalide with a basic structure similar to TiS3 is described. W3S4Cl4 was synthesized from WCl2 and sulfur at 350°C. The X-ray powder diffraction pattern was completely indexed on a small hexagonal unit cell with a = 3.336(1) A and c = 5.907(1) A. Electron diffraction studies revealed a 4 × 4 × 8 supercell, giving the compound a superstructure with a = 13.356 A and c = 47.29 A. An ordering of the tungsten vacancies which can account for this superstructure is discussed in light of the electron diffraction patterns.
Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Phase Transition of Se4(MoOCl4)2
Beck, J.
, (2008/10/08)
Dark green, very air sensitive crystals of Se4(MoOCl4)2 are formed from selenium and MoOCl4 at 190°C in a sealed, evacuated glass ampoulein quantitative yield. The structure is built of nearly square planar Se4(2+) ions and centrosymmetric dimeric MoOCl4(1-) ions which are linke d by bridging Cl atoms. At -21°C Se4(MoOCl4)2 undergoes a reversible solid state phase transition of first order. Structure determinations at -70°C and 23°C show that during the phase transition the structures of the ions remain unchanged, while the orientations of the ions with respect to each other change in such a way that in the low temperature form the Se4(2+) ions obtain a higher coordination number byCl ona O atoms of neighboring MoOCl4(1-) ions.
A gravimetric procedure for determination of sulphur in disulphur dichloride
Veena, S.,Padma, D. K.
, p. 414 (2007/10/02)
A rapid gravimetric procedure has been developed for the determination of sulphur in S2Cl2 based on the reaction of S2Cl2 with pyridine in acetonitrile.Disulphur dichloride (neat) or in an inert solvent like acetonitrile, when treated with pyridine in acetonitrile at the refluxing temperature of the latter for 3-4 hr undergoes chloride cleavage with quantitative precipitation of sulphur.The reaction is found to cleave elemental sulphur from disulphur dichloride quantitatively.Such determination of entire sulphur in S2Cl2 has not been reported so far.

Preparation, X-ray crystal structures, and vibrational spectra of some salts of the As3S4+ and As3Se4+ cations
Christian, Beverley H.,Gillespie, Ronald J.,Sawyer, Jeffery F.
, p. 3410 - 3420 (2008/10/08)
The reactions of α- and β-As4S4 and some arsenic-selenium melts with various oxidants in SO2 as solvent are reported. It is shown by X-ray crystallography that the reactions of As4S4 and a 1:1 As-Se melt with the Lewis acids AsF5 and SbF5 in a 1:3 molar ratio in SO2 give the hexafluoroarsenate and hexafluoroantimonate salts of the novel arsenic chalcogen cations As3S4+ and As3Se4+. Crystals of (As3S4)(SbF6) are yellow plates which crystallize in the orthorhombic space group Pcam with a = 20.453 (4) A?, b = 5.990 (1) A?, c = 9.609 (2) A?, U = 1177.3 (4) A?3, and dc = 3.32 g cm-3 for Z = 4. Crystals of the isomorphous (As3S4)(AsF6) are dark yellow prisms and rhombs with cell dimensions a = 19.962 (4) A?, b = 5.930 (1) A?, c - 9.441 (3) A?, U = 1115.8 (5) A?3, and dc = 3.22 g cm-3 for Z = 4. The compound (As3Se4)(SbF6) forms orange diamond-shaped plates which crystallize in the monoclinic space group P21/m with a = 6.224 (3) A?, b = 9.564 (5) A?, c = 10.643 (5) A?, β = 92.65 (4)°, U = 632.9 (5) A?3, and dc = 4.07 g cm-3 for Z = 2. The structure of the compound (As3S4)(SbF6) was solved by using the Patterson function and refined by least-squares methods to final agreement indices R1 = 0.036 and R2 = 0.043 for 699 observed data. The isomorphous compound (As3S4)(AsF6) has similarly been refined by least-squares methods to final agreement indices R1 = 0.043 and R2 = 0.052 for 546 observed data. The structure of the compound (As3Se4)(SbF6) was solved by using direct methods and has been refined by least-squares to final agreement indices R1 = 0.064 and R2 = 0.082 for 620 observed reflections. The two cations As3S4+ and As3Se4+ are isostructural with crystallographic mirror symmetry and an overall symmetry of Cs. The cage structure of the two cations can be derived by bridging three edges of a tetrahedron of three arsenic and one sulfur or selenium atoms by the remaining sulfur or selenium atoms. Bond distances, bond angles and some significant interionic contact distances in these compounds are discussed. In addition, the Raman and IR spectra of these cations as well as the Raman spectrum of As4S3 and an improved Raman spectrum of the compound α-As4S4 are reported.
