PHOSPHORUS OXYCHLORIDE: SYNTHESIS AND REACTIVITY

Phosphorus oxychloride phosophorus oxychlorde is a versatile reagent widely employed in organic synthesis. It preparation involves the reaction of phosphorus trichloride tricloride with oxygen dioxygen at elevated temperatures. This exothermic process results in the formation of POCl₃ along with hydrochloric acid HCl. The resulting product, a col
