I've made some disulfur dichloride myself and it made my lab stink for weeks, I can't imagine what yours smelled like after all those tests. Kudos for sacrificing your sense of smell for our entertainment :)
I swear that I have enormous respect for these types of inorganic chemistry reactions. I remember years ago, I was in a lab and there was an old Fisher Scientific 100ml bottle with no label. I opened the bottle to test it, and inside it had a pressurized red liquid that released a lot of brown fumes similar to bromine, but that penetrating pungent onion-smell definitely wasn't bromine. I closed the fume hood and we evacuated the laboratory for a few hours, and the bottle was handed over to waste treatment. I never knew what it was (I breathed a little, it wasn't serious, but still, the best case scenario is that it was bromine) 😅
It's actually very convenient! First of all I don't need to dry it because I've already condensed the dry chlorine :D Secondly using liquid nitrogen you can very quickly stop the boiling of chlorine and with a glass of cold water you can quickly resume it again. Thirdly you know exactly the amount of chlorine spent on the reaction since you can accurately compare the starting and final volumes of chlorine in the test tube (test tube is volumetric).
@@DangerousLab That's the life of an amateur. Often, getting basic chemicals like HNO3 and H2SO4 is even a problem. At least TCCA is plentiful and a good source of cheap Cl2.
You can just make a dry chlorine generator and condense the chlorine using a dry ice DCM bath in a suitable borosilicate glass cold trap. The enthalpy of vaporization of liquid chlorine is 293kj/kg and the enthalpy of sublimation of solid CO2 is 571kj/kg so you can easily condense a couple kg of liquid chlorine with just a standard 5kg pack of dry ice from the local market even with 25% thermal losses. It is also pretty easy to store with hastealloy or 316SS stainless steel cylinders that are pre-treated with dry HF vapor and have the correct valve material (free of brass or rubber O-rings of course). And for gods sake ensure your cylinders are also dry oil free (regulators and all). If you have to use a regulator that uses any oil, just use a little fomblin fluorinated oil.
This is the most amazing (inorganic) chemistry channel on RUclips,, showing the most extreme reactions, making any element a star. The cinematography is perfect and the story is always entertaining. Thank you.
Sulfur dichloride readily decomposes in the gas phase into disulfur dichloride and chlorine. A more favorable reaction is to chlorinate hydrogen sulfide so that all sulfur turns into sulfur dichloride.
Watching your videos it's like going to a lesson in Hogwarts!! Magical! I wish i could have all your understaind about chemistry, everything you do is really fascinating!
It is interesting that when you drop the anhydrous hydrazine on the vanadium trichloride, the reaction in slo-mo briefly forms a plasma because of the high exothermic properties of the two chemicals reacting.
I’m just waiting for “Hey guys, I’m going to show you how synthesize pure concentrated evil” because everything you work with looks so dangerous 😂. Stay safe and YOUR VIDEOS ARE AMAZING ❤
Yes. You are correct. It's not soluble in water, so it's fine. It helps to keep fumes from building up in the container as well. That's how I store mine, too.
Vanadium is indeed a very colorful metal, but I think his mates - chromium and manganese - also deserve that title. And if we talk about coordinated compounds - I remember a very nice video from early 2010s? where a guy created a full rainbow of nickel complexes.
I’m too busy playing around with tryptamine and cold reductive aminations using a ketone and / or aldehyde to be fair. I wish I could find a decent way of clearing up and crystalising the n,n-DMT without a rotovap or substantial negative pressure.

Seeing that evil liquid dripping: "THE SMELL!". Also: "Nice, no CS₂ needed this tim… OOOH"
Mmm. Sulfur compounds.
What does it smell like
That vanadium trichloride/pyridine solution was BEAUTIFUL
Pretty colours 🤩
🤑THANK YOU🤑
10 stars, these are so great.! Definitely no CGI, proper film art from real reactions, superb!
It's always a good day when carbon disulfide is involved. 😃

Normal people getting chlorine: KMnO4+HCl or TCCA+HCl
ChemicalForce: Liquid chlorine ➡ Chlorine gas
That's impressive.

@@ChemicalForce It is perfect for formal lab setup, but getting the liquid nitrogen is the most difficult part for the amateur!😆

@@louistournas120 Indeed, the spirit of amateur is to work around the problem to get what we need.

Every other chemistry yt: 'yeah, it's a mix of sulfur chlorides' --- Felix: 'so here's what it looks like pure, next to the crude product'
You have great opportunities. Also, great explanation and effort. Thank you, we watched it with pleasure.
Hey ChemicalForce! Great Video again! While you already do the S-S bond chemistry, could you do a Video with H2S2? This would be great!!
I appreciate that RUclips does not provide odors as well as video and sound.

Content de te retrouver, ça faisait longtemps ☝
interesting video as always would love to see more of you and your lab!
Hi Felicks! How are you?
My fav part of your video was the donut of fire. That was so cool!
P.S. Felicks, we love you very much, too! You sweetie pie you!
Perfect content, narration, background music...

He’s not to FOOF yet give him some time
I love these videos, thanks for showing us all of this cool shit! Lol
I love seeing the patreon list grow! (Mike B)
love your videos! 😍
Awesome content🤩🤩
Is that in a proper lab or do you have that lab at home?
In both cases i would highly appreciate a lab tour
I'm guessing that the water on top of the CS2 is to keep the volatile carbon disulfide from evaporating.... (?)
Yes. You are correct. It's not soluble in water, so it's fine. It helps to keep fumes from building up in the container as well. That's how I store mine, too.

Disulfur dichloride consists just from the right ingredients being yummy.
Hi, Any chemical or liquid combination can create a bright white light that continues to glow for upto 1 month or more. Is it possible to make it ?
Probably a good idea adding reactions with some organic, like chicken so we know if those creatures human-friendly)
Can already tell this is cursed chemistry
Here’s a cool video idea:Extracting latex from dandelions and checking out some of its properties
If I'm not wrong S2Cl2 is used as a precursor for mustard gas.
Yeah if you use a mixture of S2CL2 into SCl2 it can be reacted with Ethane to make mustard gas. But i dont think it would be pure
@@pteridiumaquilinum It worked good enough in the past.
Wow 🤩
Hey, i would like to ask u question. I need a formal for photothermal reaction with using chemical
here is the idea! Chlorine crystallohydrate Cl2×8H2O preparation and properties
❤❤❤❤thank you!!❤❤❤❤ you DO listen to comments!!! We want tou to succeed because then WE succeed with you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm curious whether disulfur dichloride indeed "dissolve" red phosphorus? To the best of my knowledge, red P is polymeric substance.
I was wondering myself. It would be interesting to see what happens when everything is evaporated off to see what's left behind.
So, can you tell us all what that water Taist like?
You did Taist it, right?
I’m too busy playing around with tryptamine and cold reductive aminations using a ketone and / or aldehyde to be fair. I wish I could find a decent way of clearing up and crystalising the n,n-DMT without a rotovap or substantial negative pressure.
I do want to look into luminescent stuff though tbf
N2H4 + VCl3 = N2 + V + HCl does anyone know if these products are correct?
isn't V2O5 liquid at RTP?
I wil make some disulfur dichloride.
But how about next reactions:
S2Cl2 + KBrO3 (KClO3) --> SO2 + S2O5Cl2 + SO2Cl2 + SOCl2...;
S2Cl2 + KMnO4 -->...
S2Cl2 + CrO3 --> SO2 + Cl2 + (SO2Cl2) + Cr2O3;
S2Cl2 + Na --> Na2S + NaCl;
S2Cl2 + P4(white/yellow) --> P(S)Cl3 + P4S3...;
S2Cl2 + Li --> Li2S + LiCl;
S2Cl2 + Zn(powder) -(H2O)-> ZnS + ZnCl2)
Нейросеть яндекса! По кой XeP ты переводишь "vanadium trichloride" как "трихлорид иридия"???
0:13 looks like an axolotl
That's how they're made
continued evidence that yellow chemistry is evil
Bro made stink bombs
Sulfur chlorides are my nightmares the smell is so nasty lol
Whoa bro slow down the commentary and keep the pitch within a couple of octaves. I could barely understand a word.
Are you some alien or what? What galaxy?
Burning oxygen...
Don't drink this. I promise you it doesn't taste like Tang.
I would NOT want to be your clean-up guy. I trust you are disposing of the wastes properly? I sure hope so.
rename your video to talk about looking lie trump and you win
