Bis(trichloromethyl) carbonate (CAS: 5743-51-5), supplied by J&K Chemical at 99% purity, is a potent phosgene equivalent. Synthesized via oxidation of chloroform or reaction of carbon dioxide with chlorine, its molecular formula is C2Cl6O3. It serves as a critical reagent for introducing the carbonyl group.
Strictly store under inert atmosphere at low temperatures due to hydrolysis risks. Use only in certified fume hoods with full PPE; it releases toxic HCl upon contact with moisture. Not approved for direct clinical use.
