'''Samarium(III) chloride''', also known as samarium trichloride, is an ] of ] and ]. It is a pale yellow salt that rapidly absorbs water to form a hexa], SmCl<sub>3</sub><sup>.</sup>6H<sub>2</sub>O.<ref name = edelmann>{{cite book | author = F. T. Edelmann, P. Poremba | title = Synthetic Methods of Organometallic and Inorganic Chemistry | editor = W. A. Herrmann | volume = 6 | publisher = Georg Thieme Verlag | location = Stuttgart | year = 1997}}</ref> The compound has few practical applications but is used in laboratories for research on new compounds of samarium.

==Structure==
Like several related chlorides of the lanthanides and actinides, SmCl<sub>3</sub> crystallises in the UCl<sub>3</sub> motif. The Sm<sup>3+</sup> centres are nine-coordinate, occupying trigonal prismatic sites with additional chloride ligands occupying the three square faces.

== Preparation and reactions==
SmCl<sub>3</sub> is prepared by the "]" route, which involves the initial synthesis of (NH<sub>4</sub>)<sub>2</sub>. This material can be prepared from the common starting materials at reaction temperatures of 230&nbsp;°C from ]:<ref>{{cite book| last =Meyer| first =G.| title =The Ammonium Chloride Route to Anhydrous Rare Earth Chlorides-The Example of YCl<sub>3</sub>| chapter =The Ammonium Chloride Route to Anhydrous Rare Earth Chlorides—The Example of Ycl <sub>3</sub>| series =Inorganic Syntheses| volume =25| year =1989| pages =146–150| doi =10.1002/9780470132562.ch35| isbn =978-0-470-13256-2}}</ref>
::10 NH<sub>4</sub>Cl + Sm<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> → 2 (NH<sub>4</sub>)<sub>2</sub> + 6 NH<sub>3</sub> + 3 H<sub>2</sub>O

The pentachloride is then heated to 350-400&nbsp;°C resulting in evolution of ammonium chloride and leaving a residue of the anhydrous trichloride:
:: (NH<sub>4</sub>)<sub>2</sub> → 2 NH<sub>4</sub>Cl + SmCl<sub>3</sub>

It can also be prepared from ] metal and ].<ref name = corbett1>{{cite journal | doi = 10.1021/ja01472a010 | author = L. F. Druding, J. D. Corbett | title =Lower Oxidation States of the Lanthanides.

Aqueous solutions of samarium(III) chloride can be prepared by dissolving metallic ] or samarium carbonate in ].

Samarium(III) chloride is a moderately strong ], which ranks as "hard" according to the ]. Aqueous solutions of samarium chloride can be used to prepare ]:
:SmCl<sub>3</sub> + 3 KF → SmF<sub>3</sub> + 3 KCl

== Uses ==
Samarium(III) chloride is used for the preparation of ] metal, which has a variety of uses, notably in ]s. Anhydrous SmCl<sub>3</sub> is mixed with ] or ] to give a low ] eutectic mixture. ] of this molten salt solution gives the free ].<ref>{{Greenwood&Earnshaw1st}}</ref>

===In laboratory===
Samarium(III) chloride can also be used as a starting point for the preparation of other ] ]s. The anhydrous ] is used to prepare ] compounds of samarium, such as bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)alkylsamarium(III) complexes.<ref>{{cite book | author = G. A. Molander, E. D.
