Title: Oxychlorosene
CAS Registry Number: 8031-14-9
Synonyms: Monoxychlorosene
Trademarks: Clorpactin (Guardian); Clorpactin XCB (Guardian)
Molecular Formula: C20H35ClO4S
Molecular Weight: 407.01
Percent Composition: C 59.02%, H 8.67%, Cl 8.71%, O 15.72%, S 7.88%
Line Formula: C20H34O3S.HOCl
Literature References: Described as a buffered organic hypochlorous acid derivative with slightly acid pH. Contains a long chain hydrocarbon (surface-active agent). The chain (14 carbons) may be branched or straight but actually consists of a constant mixture having predominantly the straight chain. The hydrocarbon chain also has a phenyl substituent which in turn holds a sulfonic acid group. The complex corresponds to a formula: HO3S-C6H4-(C14H29).HOCl.
Properties: Aq solns are unstable and should be freshly prepd; the solid may be stored in properly stoppered bottles.
Derivative Type: Sodium salt
CAS Registry Number: 52906-84-0
