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.
Application
Copper(I) chloride (Cuprous chloride, CuCl) has been used to synthesize 7-((tert-butyldimethylsilyl)oxy)hepta-2,4-diyn-1-ol. CuCl may be used in the stereospecific synthesis of cyclic conjugated dienes. It may be employed as a reactant to investigate the stability of copper chloride complexes in hydrothermal solutions.
Shows unique character as an initiator of radical reactions such as the hydrostannation of α,β-unsaturated ketones.
