Calcium chloride forms addition compounds with the alcohols. On evaporating a solution in ethyl alcohol at a low temperature rectangular plates of
2CaCl2β
7C2H5OH are deposited. The compounds CaCl2β
3C2H5OH and CaCl2β
CH3OH have also been separated, as well as a mono- and a di-acetone
compound, and compounds with isobutyl and amyl alcohols.
