Sulfur dichloride, SCl2, is the highest thermally stable chloride of sulfur. It is also the first in a homologous series of dichlorosulfanes, SnCl2.
Contents
Preparation and purification
Sulfur dichloride is prepared by the chlorination of elemental sulfur, with disulfur dichloride as an intermediate.
- S8 + 4 Cl2 → 4 S2Cl2
- S2Cl2 + Cl2 → 2 SCl2
Sulfur dichloride is often contaminated with S2Cl2, but can be stabilized with a small amount of phosphorus pentachloride.[1] It is purified by distillation, often as an azeotrope with phosphorus trichloride (99% SCl2).[4]
Reactions
Sulfur dichloride is used as a precursor to organosulfur compounds, as it adds easily to C=C double bonds:[4] a well-known example is in the manufacture of mustard gas from SCl2 and ethylene.[1]
- SCl2 + 2 H2C=CH2 → ClCH2CH2SCH2CH2Cl
It is also used in the industrial preparation of thionyl chloride.[1]
- SCl2 + SO3 → SOCl2 + SO2
Fluorination of SCl2 with sodium fluoride leads to disproportionation, and provides a convenient synthesis of sulfur tetrafluoride, a versatile fluorinating agent.[5][6][7]
- 3 SCl2 + 4 NaF → SF4 + S2Cl2 + 4 NaCl
The reaction of sulfur dichloride with water is vigorous, and leads to extensive disproportionation and a variety of products.[1]
