Aminomercuric chloride

Properties:

Physical properties: Chloroaminomercaptan is a colorless or pale yellow crystalline powder with a certain pungent odor.

Chemical properties: Chloroaminomercaptan is weakly acidic in aqueous solution and can react with acids and bases to form salt compounds. It is prone to decomposition at high temperatures and can even decompose into mercury and chlorine gas.

Purpose:

1. Chloroammonium mercury is commonly used as a catalyst in organic synthesis reactions to accelerate the reaction rate.

2. It is toxic. Chloroammonium mercury can be used as a bactericide and preservative.

3. In some chemical experiments, chloroammonium mercury can be used as an analytical reagent.

Safety Information:

1. Avoid inhaling the smoke from the powder or solution of chlorinated amino mercury. Wear personal protective equipment such as masks, gloves, and goggles properly.

2. Avoid direct contact with chlorinated amino mercury to prevent skin sensitivity or irritation. In case of contact, immediately rinse with plenty of water and seek medical attention promptly.

3. Chlorinated amino mercury should be kept away from heat sources and oxidants to avoid dangers caused by high temperatures or flames.

4. During use, store it in a sealed container and keep it away from children and animals to prevent accidental ingestion or inhalation.

5. Dispose of the waste solution containing chlorinated amino mercury in accordance with the relevant local regulations.
