Description

Chlorosarin (https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/Chlorosarin) is a chemical weapon which is related to sarin (https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/sarin). Structurally, chlorosarin (https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/chlorosarin) differs from sarin (https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/sarin) only in that the fluorine (https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/fluorine) atom in sarin (https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/sarin) is replaced by a chlorine (https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/chlorine) atom in chlorosarin (https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/chlorosarin). This change is only expected to have a small effect on chlorosarin (https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/chlorosarin)'s chemical reactivity as compared to the reactivity of sarin (https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/sarin). See the chemical datasheet for sarin (https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/sarin) for more information.
