What is Lewsite gas ?

Lewsite ( 2-Chlorovinyldichloroarsine) is a Chlorine and arsenic containing organic compound. It is four time powerful poisonous gas than musturd gas. It causes immediate death because it penetrates clothes and body tissues. It's toxic nature found due to its reaction with -SH group of enzymes. 

Lewsite form by reaction of Ethene with Arsenic chloride  in the presence of catalyst AlCl₃ or Cu₂Cl2 or HgCl₂.

What is saponification reaction ?

We know that triacyl derivatives of glycerol are called (triesters) glycerides. And chemically fats and oils are glycerides. Glycerol and soap is prepared from glyceride by treating it with aq. NaOH. The reaction is called the saponification reaction.
