Research Summary
Phosgene is a toxic, colorless gas with a distinctive musty odor, primarily used in the chemical industry as an intermediate in the production of polyurethanes, pesticides, and pharmaceuticals. It is formed by the reaction of carbon monoxide with chlorine and is highly reactive, making it useful in the synthesis of various chemicals, including isocyanates and carbamates. While phosgene has industrial applications, it is extremely hazardous to human health, as inhalation can cause severe respiratory damage, potentially leading to pulmonary edema and death. Historically, it was used as a chemical weapon during World War I, and due to its toxicity, stringent safety measures are required when handling or storing phosgene in industrial settings.
