Description

Hexacarbonyltungsten, also known as tungsten hexacarbonyl (W(CO)6), is a colorless, volatile, and air-sensitive solid. It is synthesized by reacting tungsten metal with carbon monoxide under high pressure and temperature. The compound is important as a precursor to other tungsten-containing compounds, such as tungsten carbides and tungsten oxides, which have applications in various industries. Its volatility and sensitivity to air make it challenging to handle, but it is studied for its potential in areas like thin film deposition and chemical vapor deposition. The compound is also used as a catalyst in organic synthesis, particularly for reactions involving carbon monoxide. '
