What is Bismuth trichloride CAS 7787-60-2？

Bismuth trichloride is a white to light yellow crystal that is easily hygroscopic and has a hydrogen chloride odor. It is soluble in hydrochloric acid and nitric acid and decomposes into bismuth oxychloride in water. Bismuth chloride white crystal. Easily deliquescent. Soluble in acid, ethanol, ether, and acetone, insoluble in water. Sublimation in the air and decomposition into BiOCl upon contact with water. Easy to generate double salt.

Bismuth Trichloride is an inorganic bismuth salt with wide applications in catalysis, organic synthesis, analytical chemistry, and materials research. Known for its Lewis acid properties, BiCl₃ is frequently employed as a catalyst in organic reactions such as Friedel-Crafts acylations, alkylations, and rearrangements.

It is also used as a precursor for other bismuth compounds, including bismuth oxide and bismuth subnitrate, and plays a role in semiconductor materials and specialty glass manufacturing.
