A mixture of this compound and potassium hydroxide is used to formylate phenols in the Reimer‐Tiemann reaction. Bottles of this substance usually contain ethanol or amylene as a stabilizer, becausethis compound reacts with oxygen to form phosgene. A 25 to 24 to 1 mixture of phenol, thissubstance, and (*) isoamyl alcohol is used in DNA extractions. A version of this compound containing asingle deuterium atom is a common solvent in NMR spectroscopy
