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.

Application

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