General description

Copper chloride is a white solid. It is insoluble in water. Copper(II) chloride may be prepared by dissolving excess of copper (II) oxide or copper(II) carbonate in dilute hydrochloric acid.[1]

Application

Adding CuCl2 to AgNO3 with EG1mYAbe is used to produce uniform Ag nanowires.[2] Copper chloride may be used as a catalyst in organic chlorination reactions.[3] Used with palladium in a catalytic synthesis of 3-haloindoles via an annulation process.[4]

Direct arylation of thiophenes and benzothiophenes with aryltrimethylsilanes was effectively catalyzed by PdCl(2)(MeCN)(2) in the presence of CuCl(2) as an oxidant. The reaction preferentially occurred at the β-position of both thiophenes and benzothiophenes.
