'''Vanadium tetrachloride''' is the ] with the formula ]]<sub>4</sub>. This reddish-brown liquid serves as a useful ] for the preparation of other ] compounds.

==Synthesis, bonding, basic properties==
With one more valence electron than ] ], VCl<sub>4</sub> is a ] liquid. It is one of only a few paramagnetic compounds that is liquid at room temperature.

VCl<sub>4</sub> is prepared by chlorination of vanadium metal. VCl<sub>5</sub> does not form in this reaction; Cl<sub>2</sub> lacks the oxidizing power to attack VCl<sub>4</sub>. ] can however be prepared indirectly from ] at −78&nbsp;°C.<ref>{{ cite journal | first1 = Farhad | last1 = Tamadon | first2 = Konrad | last2 = Seppelt | title = The Elusive Halides VCl<sub>5</sub>, MoCl<sub>6</sub>, and ReCl<sub>6</sub> | journal = ] | year = 2013 | volume = 52 | issue = 2 | pages = 767–769 | doi = 10.1002/anie.201207552 | pmid = 23172658 }}</ref>

==Reactions==
Consistent with its high oxidizing power, VCl<sub>4</sub> reacts with HBr at -50&nbsp;°C to produce ]. The reaction proceeds via VBr<sub>4</sub>, which releases Br<sub>2</sub> during warming to room temperature.<ref>{{cite journal | last1= Calderazzo|first1= F. |last2=Maichle-Mössmer|first2= C.|first3= Pampaloni|last3= G. |first4=Strähle|last4= J. | title = Low-temperature Syntheses of Vanadium(III) and Molybdenum(IV) Bromides by Halide Exchange | journal = ] |issue= 5 | year = 1993 | pages = 655–8| doi = 10.1039/DT9930000655}}</ref>
:2&nbsp;VCl<sub>4</sub> + 8&nbsp;HBr → 2&nbsp;VBr<sub>3</sub> + 8&nbsp;HCl + Br<sub>2</sub>

VCl<sub>4</sub> forms ]s with many donor ligands, for example, VCl<sub>4</sub>(])<sub>2</sub>.

It is the precursor to ].

===Organic chemistry===
In ], VCl<sub>4</sub> is used for the ] of phenols. For example, it converts ] into a mixture of 4,4'-, 2,4'-, and 2,2'-]s:<ref>{{cite encyclopedia|first1=M.

==Applications==
VCl<sub>4</sub> is a catalyst for the polymerization of alkenes, especially those useful in the rubber industry. The underlying technology is related to ], which involves the intermediacy of vanadium alkyls.

==Safety considerations==
VCl<sub>4</sub> is a volatile, aggressive oxidant that readily hydrolyzes to release ].
