General description
Calcium chloride (CaCl2) is an inorganic compound that is used as a Lewis base catalyst in organic synthesis. Additionally, it is also used as a drying agent in laboratories for drying liquids such as acetone, ethers, numerous esters, aliphatic, olefinic, aromatic, halogenated hydrocarbons, and neutral gases.
Application
Calcium chloride can be used as a catalyst in glucose thin-film pyrolysis experiments. It is also used as the electrolyte in the electro-deoxidation of solid zirconium oxide.
