Aluminum Chloride 99% Friedel-Crafts

Aluminum Chloride 99% | Aluminium Trichloride | AlCl₃ – Classic Lewis Acid Catalyst     Our Aluminum Chloride 99% delivers time-tested Lewis acidity for Friedel-Crafts, petrochemical, and fine chemical synthesis worldwide. This CAS 7446-70-0 metal halide (Aluminium Trichloride, AlCl₃) achieves ≥99.0% assay with ≤0.5% iron and ≤0.2% insoluble matter—the catalytic power your electrophilic aromatic substitution demands.   As the archetypal strong Lewis acid, anhydrous aluminum chloride generates carbocations and acylium ions for C–C bond formation. It serves as the standard catalyst for Friedel-Crafts alkylation and acylation in pharmaceutical and fragrance intermediates, a promoter for hydrocarbon isomerization and alkylation in refinery processes, a cracking catalyst for polyethylene and polypropylene production, and a dehydrating agent for ester and ether synthesis. The dimeric Al₂Cl₆ structure dissociates to monomeric AlCl₃ under catalytic conditions, maximizing coordinative unsatu…
