The reagent is prepared from stable, inexpensive and readily available starting materials. In-line UV/vis monitoring enables determination of the reagent's concentration after a continuous extraction and liquid–liquid separation sequence.
The electronic structure of nitrosyl chloride (ClNO) has been investigated in the gas phase by X-ray Photoelectron (XPS) and Near Edge X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy at the Cl 2p, Cl 2s, N 1s and O 1s edges in a combined experimental and theoretical study.
