RHENIUM TRICHLORIDE Uses

Rhenium trichloride (CAS NO.13569-63-6) is used as a starting material for synthesis of rhenium complexes. ReCl₃ can react with peralkylated benzene-metal complexes that act as electron reservoirs.

RHENIUM TRICHLORIDE Production

Rhenium trichloride (CAS NO.13569-63-6) is most efficiently prepared by the thermal decomposition of rhenium pentachloride in nitrogen. Other methods include reacting sulphuryl chloride with rhenium powder with or without the addition of aluminium chloride, the thermal decomposition of salts of hexachlororhenic(IV) acid, or the heating of Re₂(O₂CCH₃)4Cl₂ under HCl gas.

RHENIUM TRICHLORIDE Specification

Rhenium trichloride prepared from rhenium pentachloride without further treatment is chemically reactive, but if it is vacuum sublimed at 500oC, then it becomes comparatively unreactive. However, x-ray diffraction tests show no observable difference in structure between the untreated and vacuum sublimed material.
The heat of oxidation according to the equation,
ReCl₃(s) + 4OH- + 2OCl- → ReO₄- + 2H₂O + 5Cl-
is 190.7 ± 0.2 kcal/mol.
