Chlorination of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives. IX. Liquid Phase Chlorination of Aliphatic C2-C8 Alkyl Acetates. EI Mass Spectra of Monochlorinated Esters

A series of aliphatic alkyl acetates from ethyl to octyl acetate was chlorinated in the liquid phase in order to obtain monochlorinated products.The chlorination of esters was carried out with chlorine in the liquid phase in the absence and in the presence of benzene and with sulfuryl chloride in the presence of Bz2O2.The products were determined by gas-liquid chromatography and gas-liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry.Chlorination is appreciably deactivated at the 1-position, particularly with SO2Cl2, the deactivation at the 2-position being strongest with Cl2 in the presence of benzene.The amounts of 1-chloro and ω-chloro isomers constituted the greatest disparity between the chlorination methods.The most characteristic mass spectral fragment ions of the 35 chlorinated alkyl acetates are given.
