Abstract

Molybdenum trichloride was successfully prepared in quantity b y the reduction of molybdenum p entachloridc with hydrogen. The most satisfactory yields were obLained with a 4 to 5 mole excess of hydrogen at pressures of 100 psi or higher and at a temp erature of 125°C. Molybdenum tetrachloride "'as prepared by direct reaction of mol ybde num trichloride with mol ybdenum pentachloride in a sealed tube or steel bomb maintained at 250 0 C. X-ray patterns of the various chlorides were obtained.
