Chlorination of various substrates in subcritical carbon tetrachloride
Various aliphatic hydrocarbons and the side chains of aromatic hydrocarbons were chlorinated in subcritical carbon tetrachloride. Chlorination of aromatic compounds including 1,4-disubstituted benzenes was investigated. Ketones and sulfones were stable under the employed conditions. Sulfoxides were converted into sulfides in a low to modest yields. The coupling adducts between olefins and carbon tetrachloride were obtained from the reactions of olefins.
