Tetrachlorocyclopropene（Cat No.:M009022）is a highly reactive organochlorine compound with the molecular formula C3Cl4. It consists of a three-membered cyclopropene ring substituted with four chlorine atoms, making it strained and electrophilic. This colorless to pale yellow liquid is used primarily as a reagent and intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of polycyclic and halogenated compounds. Due to its high reactivity, it participates in cycloaddition reactions and nucleophilic substitutions. Tetrachlorocyclopropene must be handled with caution, as it is toxic and potentially corrosive, requiring appropriate safety measures during storage and use.
