7457 <common-name>MAGNESIUM CHLORIDE</common-name> <description>MAGNESIUM CHLORIDE (Cl2Mg) is an inorganic compound with an average molecular weight of 95.21 g/mol. MAGNESIUM CHLORIDE belongs to the alkaline earth metal chlorides, a subclass of alkaline earth metal salts within the inorganic compounds. In industrial applications, it serves as a viscosity modifier, stabilizing agent, preservative, additive, dye, fragrance, flavouring and nutrient, and as processing aids not otherwise specified (PMC12376922). The compound is used in plastics, specifically in Polypropylene, Polyamide, Polyethylene Terephthalate, and High-Density Polyethylene. It is found in or released from 29 recorded sources. These include building and construction materials such as roofs, floors, ceilings, and fencing; household cleaning and consumer products including soap dispensers, ash trays, pipe accessories, other smoking requisites, and non electric simulated smoking devices; and healthcare, pharmaceuticals and veterinary products, specifically minerals and IV solution additives. Additionally, it is associated with food, food processing and cookware, including the preparation of wine or sparkling wine, preparation of wort, preparation of vinegar, molasses and treatment of molasses, and cellar tools. It is also found in electrical and electronic equipment, such as antennas, adjustable resistors, auxiliary devices, communication cables or conductors, and cores yokes or armatures. Recorded exposure routes for this compound include oral, buccal, rectal, topical, ophthalmic, intraocular, intravenous, intra-arterial, intraperitoneal, intrathecal, irrigation, and hemodialysis.</description> <cas>7786-30-3</cas> <pubchem-id>5360315</pubchem-id> <chemical-formula>Cl2Mg</chemical-formula> <weight>95.21</weight> <appearance nil="true"/> <melting-point nil="true"/> <boiling-point nil="true"/> <density nil="true"/> <solubility nil="true"/> <specific-gravity nil="true"/> <flash-point nil="true"/> <vapour-pressure nil="true"/> <route-of-exposure nil="true"/> <target nil="true"/> <mechanism-of-toxicity nil="true"/> <metabolism nil="true"/> <toxicity nil="true"/> <lethaldose nil="true"/> <carcinogenicity nil="true"/> <use-source nil="true"/> <min-risk-level nil="true"/> <health-effects nil="true"/> <symptoms nil="true"/> <treatment nil="true"/> <created-at type="dateTime">2016-05-19T02:12:44Z</created-at> <updated-at type="dateTime">2026-05-14T19:05:52Z</updated-at> <interacting-proteins nil="true"/> <wikipedia nil="true"/> <uniprot-id nil="true"/> <kegg-compound-id nil="true"/> <omim-id nil="true"/> <chebi-id nil="true"/> <biocyc-id nil="true"/> <ctd-id nil="true"/> <stitch-id nil="true"/> <drugbank-id>DB09407</drugbank-id> <pdb-id nil="true"/> <actor-id nil="true"/> <organism nil="true"/> <export type="boolean">true</export> <metabolizing-proteins nil="true"/> <transporting-proteins nil="true"/> <moldb-smiles>[Mg++].[Cl-].[Cl-]</moldb-smiles> <moldb-formula>Cl2Mg</moldb-formula> <moldb-inchi>InChI=1S/2ClH.Mg/h2*1H;/q;;+2/p-2</moldb-inchi> <moldb-inchikey>TWRXJAOTZQYOKJ-UHFFFAOYSA-L</moldb-inchikey> <moldb-average-mass type="decimal">95.211</moldb-average-mass> <moldb-mono-mass type="decimal">93.922747312</moldb-mono-mass> <origin nil="true"/> <state nil="true"/> <logp>-0.57</logp> <hmdb-id nil="true"/> <chembl-id nil="true"/> <chemspider-id nil="true"/> <structure-image-file-name nil="true"/> <structure-image-content-type nil="true"/> <structure-image-file-size type="integer" nil="true"/> <structure-image-updated-at type="dateTime" nil="true"/> <biodb-id nil="true"/> <synthesis-reference nil="true"/> <structure-image-caption nil="true"/> <chemdb-id>CHEM006352</chemdb-id> <dsstox-id nil="true"/> <toxcast-id nil="true"/> <stoff-ident-origin nil="true"/> <stoff-ident-id nil="true"/> <susdat-id>NS00080860</susdat-id> <iupac>magnesium(2+) dichloride</iupac> <moldb-polar-surface-area>0</moldb-polar-surface-area> <moldb-refractivity>5.6156</moldb-refractivity> <moldb-polarizability>2.3881688999999993</moldb-polarizability> <moldb-rotatable-bond-count>0</moldb-rotatable-bond-count> <moldb-acceptor-count>0</moldb-acceptor-count> <moldb-donor-count>0</moldb-donor-count> <moldb-pka-strongest-acidic nil="true"/> <moldb-pka-strongest-basic nil="true"/> <moldb-physiological-charge>2</moldb-physiological-charge> <moldb-number-of-rings>0</moldb-number-of-rings> <moldb-alogps-logp nil="true"/> <moldb-alogps-logs nil="true"/> <moldb-alogps-solubility nil="true"/> <kingdom>Inorganic compounds</kingdom> <superklass>Mixed metal/non-metal compounds</superklass> <klass>Alkaline earth metal salts</klass> <subklass>Alkaline earth metal chlorides</subklass> <paper-count type="integer">4157</paper-count> <sync-id>CED0000915</sync-id> <structure-inchikey>TWRXJAOTZQYOKJ-UHFFFAOYSA-L</structure-inchikey> <structure-fingerprint>800000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000002000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000</structure-fingerprint> <structure-pattern-fingerprint>40000004000000000000000000000000000000000000000000080000000000840000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000</structure-pattern-fingerprint> <structure-pickle type="binary" encoding="base64">776t3gAAAAAQAAAAAwAAAAAAAAADAAAAAAAAAIABDCAKAAAAAgERIAIAAAD/ ESACAAAA/wtCAAAAABcEAAAAAAAAABY= </structure-pickle> <structure-indexed-at type="dateTime">2026-09-19T04:02:53Z</structure-indexed-at> </compound>
