TUNGSTEN(VI) CHLORIDE - CAS 13283-01-7

TUNGSTEN(VI) CHLORIDE (CAS 13283-01-7) is a tungsten coordination entity. It is an important starting reagent in the preparation of tungsten compounds. It was the precursor to tungsten-based carbenes which catalyze the olefin metathesis reactions of 1- and 2-octene. It promoted the conversion of 1,3-dithiolanes and 1,3-dithianes to chlorinated dihydro-1,4-dithiins and dihydro-1,4-dithiepines.
