This solution is the equivalent of one containing 6.5 grains of trichloride to the ounce of water. |
Antimony pentachloride, SbCl5 is prepared by heating the trichloride in a current of chlorine. |
It gives a precipitate with iodine trichloride, and has therefore probably a pyridine nucleus, it may be an acid anilide. |
The solution being evaporated, the trichloride occurs as a greenish-blue deliquescent mass, which is soluble in alcohol. |
It is prepared by dropping a strong solution of antimony trichloride into a saturated solution of sodic phosphate. |
Antimonyl chloride, SbOCl, is produced by the decomposition of one part of the trichloride with four parts of water. |
