About this item

IUPAC name	trichloroalumane
canonical smiles	[Al](Cl)(Cl)Cl
inchi	InChI=1S/Al.3ClH/h;3*1H/q+3;;;/p-3
inchi key	VSCWAEJMTAWNJL-UHFFFAOYSA-K
molecular formula	AlCl3
synonyms	ALUMINUM CHLORIDE Aluminum trichloride Aluminium chloride 7446-70-0 trichloroalumane
Compound Description	Aluminum chloride, anhydrous appears as a white to gray powder with a pungent odor. Corrosive to tissue and toxic by ingestion. Aluminium trichloride is an aluminium coordination entity. It has a role as a Lewis acid. Aluminum chloride is a chemical compound with the chemical formula AlCl3. When contaminated with iron chloride, it often displays a yellow color compared to the white pure compound. It is used in various chemical applications as a Lewis base, with anhydrous aluminium trichloride being the most commonly used Lewis acid. It may also be found in over-the-counter as an antiperspirant or prescription products as an antihemorrhagic agent. In antiperspirant products, FDA approves the use of aluminum chloride as an active ingredient up to 15%, calculated on the hexahydrate form, in an aqueous solution nonaerosol dosage form. Aluminium chloride is a chloride of aluminum. It is probably the most commonly used Lewis acid and also one of the most powerful. It finds widespread application in the chemical industry as the classic catalyst for Friedel-Crafts reactions, both acylations and alkylations. It also finds use in polymerization and isomerization reactions of hydrocarbons. Aluminium chloride, often in the form of derivatives such as aluminium chlorohydrate, is a common component in antiperspirants at low concentrations. Aluminum is the most abundant metal in the earth's crust and is always found combined with other elements such as oxygen, silicon, and fluorine. A compound with the chemical formula AlCl3; the anhydrous salt is used as a catalyst in organic chemical synthesis, and hydrated salts are used topically as antiperspirants, and for the management of HYPERHYDROSIS.

hazards summary	Hydrogen chloride gas and hydrochloric acid released upon contact of Al-Cl3 with moisture. Corrosive to the eyes, skin, and respiratory tract. Inhalation of dust or released HCl can cause acute pulmonary edema. Occupational asthma confirmed by specific challenge testing in a foundry worker. Fumes in moist air (forms a large amount of hydrogen chloride gas). Reacts with active metals in the presence of moisture to produce hydrogen and HCl gases. Contact with the anhydrous substance causes thermal and acid burns. See Aluminum.
