Iron(III)chloride hexahydrate can be used as a catalyst for the:<\/p>\n
    \n
  • Esterification of fatty acids and alcohols to synthesize fatty acid esters.<\/li>\n
  • Regioselective arylations of \u03b1-amido sulfones with electron-rich arenes to synthesize unsymmetrical or bis-symmetrical triarylmethanes via Friedel-Crafts alkylation.<\/li>\n
  • Synthesis of acyl azide derivatives by the acylation of sodium azide with\u00a0N<\/i>-acylbenzotriazoles.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
