Calcium(I) chloride explained

Calcium(I) chloride (CaCl) is a diatomic molecule observed in certain gases.[1]

A solid with the composition CaCl was reported in 1953;[2] however, later efforts to reproduce this work failed.[3] Molecules of CaCl have been observed in the atmospheres of carbon stars.
