[edit] Preparation
Does anyone know easier steps to get the synthesis of Thionyl chloride??
- I recall making SOCl2 in high school via one of the methods you show, SO2 and PCl5, it is easy. Greenwood & Earnshaw (Chemistry of the Elements) indicates that this is the standard lab method, but on an industrial scale it is done via SO3 + SCl2 → SOCl2 + SO2. The third method shown presently is in effect a sum of the second method + this industrial route. I will add the industrial process to the page. Walkerma 15:58, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC)
we are getting the coloured(reddish/marun colour)impurities during manufacturing of thionyl chloride. what is the reason for this? if any one can find then send me at following email address : alpesh20002001@yahoo.co.in thanks

Does anyone know why thionyl bromide is listed as an anion under related compounds?Haligonian1 14:14, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
- It uses a standard chembox for inorganic compounds, and most of these were salts. I've changed "anions" for "halogens" which is the appropriate term here. Thanks for pointing it out! Walkerma 14:42, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Graphics
I think the new grahics have phosgene instead of thionyl chloride as a reagent, maybe this could be changed. I'm with gerrit (talk) 21:34, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
