Abstract
Hydrogen chloride is produced as a by-product in industrial processes on a million-ton scale. Since HCl is inherently dangerous, its storage and transport are avoided by, e.g., on-site electrolysis providing H2 and Cl2 which usually requires complex cell designs and PFAS-based membranes. Here we report a complementary approach to safely store 0.61 kilogram HCl per kilogram storage material [NEt3Me]Cl forming the bichloride [NEt3Me][Cl(HCl)n]. Although HCl release is possible from this ionic liquid by heat or vacuum, the bichloride can be used directly to produce base chemicals like vinyl chloride. Alternatively, [NEt3Me][Cl(HCl)n] is electrolyzed under anhydrous conditions using a membrane-free cell to generate H2 and the corresponding chlorination agent [NEt3Me][Cl(Cl2)n], enabling the combination of these ionic liquids for the production of base chemicals.
