Application

Shows unique character as an initiator of radical reactions such as the hydrostannation of α,β-unsaturated ketones.

Copper(I) chloride (CuCl) has been used in the synthesis of copper nanoring structures. It has also been used as a precursor for the fabrication of ordered array of TiO₂ nanoparticles on the conductive nitrogen-doped graphene (NG).

General description

Cu is present in +1 (cuprous) valence state in CuCl. CuCl is a semiconductor having a wide band gap. It is a promising candidate for use in silicon-based optoelectronics since its lattice resembles with silicon. It participates in various reactions with Grignard reagents.
