General description

Boron trichloride (BCl3) is a boron halide typically used as a reagent in organic synthesis for the cleavage of C-O bonds in ethers.[1]

Application

Boron trichloride (BCl3) can be used as a reactant in the preperation of borazine-linked polymer [BLP-10(Cl)] by thermal decomposition with benzidine for gas storage and purification.[2]
