Novel synthetic pathway for the production of phosgene

Patrick Vossnacker et al.

Summary: Chloride ions have been found to be efficient catalysts for the synthesis of phosgene from carbon monoxide and elemental chlorine at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. Through control experiments, the role of [NEt3Me][Cl-3] as an active species has been highlighted. This discovery opens up the possibility of using [NEt3Me]Cl as a catalyst for phosgene production and chlorine storage.
