The radical (=CO), occuring, always combined, in many
compounds, as the aldehydes, the ketones, urea, carbonyl

formed from chlorine and carbon monoxide, under the
influence of light, and hence has been called phosgene,
or phosgene gas; -- called also carbon oxychloride. It
is used in chemical synthesis, and was also used as a
poison gas in World War I.
