ClO2 uses?
Could ClO2 be used for anything useful in chemistry? For ex. creating chlorides, aldehydes, etc? One process would generate excessive amounts of it as
a waste and thought that..
One document cites as following:
Organic Reactions:
l. With organic compounds in water → aldehydes, carboxylic acids, ketones &
quinones
2. With olefins → aldehydes, epoxides, chlorohydrins, dichloro-derivatives, and
chloro-and unsaturated ketones.
3. With ethylenic double bonds → ketones, epoxides, alcohols
4. With benzene → no reaction
5. With toluene → Ch3, CH2Cl, CH2OH
6. With anthracene 45o → anthraquinone, l, 4 dichloroanthracene
7. With phenanthrene → diphenic acid, 9-chlorophenanthrene
8. With 3, 4-benzopyrene → quinones, traces of chlorinated benzopyrene
(no longer considered carcinogenic)
9. With carboxylic and sulfonic functions → no reaction
10. With aldehydes → carboxylic acids
8
11. With ketones → alcohols
12. With aliphatic amines primary → slow or no reaction
secondary → slow or no reaction
tertiary → rupture of CN bond, no N-oxides formed

Very powerful bleaching agent used with wood pulp in paper mills (yuuch). Chlorination of muni water supplies. The wiki covers all this. It's
usually a good place to start. Be sure and donate once in awhile.

ClO2 apparently does not oxidize alcohols, so it may indeed be a selective oxidizing agent.

This is a start;

I am sure that there are a lot more publications out there!
