Application

Cerium trichloride can be used as a raw material for the production of cerium and other cerium salts, as a petroleum catalyst, and as a Lewis acid in organic synthesis. Cerium trichloride can be used as a raw material for the production of cerium trifluoromethanesulfonate, which is a Lewis acid in organic synthesis and is used for the Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction. Cerium trichloride itself is also a Lewis acid used in the Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction. When cerium trichloride heptahydrate is shared with sodium borohydride, it can be used as a reagent in the Luche reduction reaction. This reaction is an organic synthesis process that involves α,β- One of the commonly used methods for reducing unsaturated ketones.
