As far as I know these reagents are widely used in Vilsmeier - Haach reaction!!!
Chemical reaction of a substituted amide with phosphorus oxychloride and an activated arene to produce an aryl aldehyde or ketone the reaction of a substituted amide with phosphorus oxychloride gives a substituted chloroiminium ion, also called the Vilsmeier reagent. The initial product is an iminium ion which is hydrolyzed to the corresponding aromatic ketone or aldehyde.
