Useful:

• Chemical Classes: Metals -> Metalloid Compounds (Antimony)
• Canonical SMILES: Cl[Sb](Cl)(Cl)(Cl)Cl
• Physical properties: Antimony pentachloride is prepared by passing chlorine gas into molten antimony trichloride:SbCl3 + Cl2 →SbCl5or by the reaction of the element with excess chlorine:2 Sb + 5 Cl2 → 2 SbCl5.
• Uses: Antimony(V) chloride is used as a catalyst and an analytical reagent for testing alkaloids and cesium. It is also used as a polymerization catalyst as well as involved in the chlorination of organic compounds. It acts as a Lewis acid and a strong oxidizing agent. As catalyst when replacing a fluorine substituent with chlorine in organic compounds.
