Bromine ethylene tetrachloride

Chromic acid, nitric acid, hydroxyl-containing compounds, ethylene glycol, perchloric acid, peroxides, or permanganates Concentrated nitric and sulphuric acid mixtures Chlorine, bromine, copper, silver, fluorine or mercury Carbon dioxide, carbon tetrachloride, or other chlorinated... 

Non-reactive towards bromine water or a solution of bromine in carbon tetrachloride (unless an ethylenic or acetylenic or other unsaturated group is also present). 

In the chemical industry chlorine is used for the production of various chemical compounds, such as hydrochloric acid, hypochlorites, chlorates, bleaching powder, aluminium chloride, corrosive sublimate, cupric chloride, carbon tetrachloride, tin recovery from used cans, sulphuryl chloride, for extraction of bromine from Stassfurt waste liquors, etc. In the organic chemical industry it is used for the chlorination of aliphatic and cyclic organic compounds, for the preparation of medicaments, the manufacture of plastics, insecticides, fungicides and herbicides. Monochloracetic acid, ethylene chlorhydrine, chloral, chlor-... 

Arapahoe, A, B, E, F, KK, MCB. See reviews. Preparation. A commercial sample colored by occlusion of bromine can be purified by crystallization from 10 times its weight of water this purification eliminates inorganic salts which tend to increase the amount of addition of bromine rather than of allylic bromination. AUyUe bromination. Procedures for allylic bromination as used in the commercial production of cortisone are reported by Velluz. A solution of 100 g. of the diphenyl-ethylene (1) in 11. of carbon tetrachloride is treated with 30 g. of N-bromosuccinimide and refluxed under irradiation for 15 min., when hydrogen bromide begins to be... 

Properties of Cinnamic Acid (Section 553).—(a) Test for the double bond in cinnamic acid.—Dissolve about 0.5 gram of the acid in carbon tetrachloride and add, drop by drop, a solution of bromine in the same solvent. If no reaction takes place in 1 minute, warm the solution gently. (Eq.) How does the rate at which this reaction proceeds compare with the rate with which ethylene and bromine react ... 

The main conversion is favored by the presence of certain accelerators (chlorine, bromine, iodine, carbon tetrachloride and oxygen to a lesser degree). However, it is inhibited by chain splitters such as olefins (ethylene, propylene, eta). 

Why is carbon tetrachloride used as a solvent How nuy one differentiate between addition of bromine and substitution by bromine Suggest an experiment for determining whether addition is taking place as well as substitution. Would aniline respond to this test What classes of compounds are readily substituted by halogens Certain ethylene derivatives add bromine very slowly. May such exceptions be predicted ... 

Most of the chemical reactions as well as experimental structure determinations are performed in solutions. On the contrary, usual quantum chemical computations usually deal with isolated chemical species. This may lead to erroneous conclusions. For instance, the addition of bromine to an ethylenic hydrocarbon is known for having a different mechanism in the gas phase and in solution. In this example, the velocity constant vary by a factor of 10 when going from carbon tetrachloride to water as a solvent (Reichardt 1979), although the mechanism is the same These features are confirmed by appropriate quantum chemical computations which show that the transition state of ethylene-bromine would be dissymmetric and 55kcal/mol above the van der Waals complex in the case of the isolated species (Yamabe et al. 1988), while with a simple simulation of the solvent effect one finds a symmetric transition state lying 30.79 kcal/mol above the van der Waals complex in a non dipolar solvent and 0.02 kcal/mol in water (Assfeld 1994). 

The general impression is of a widespread distribution, at the pg/1 level, of chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, trichloroethylene, perchloroethylene and methyl chloroform methyl chloride, vinyl chloride and ethylene dichloride are virtually absent, despite the large quantity of each known to be produced while methylene chloride is reported locally, and such compounds as hexachlorobutadiene at very low levels only in waters known to be affected by production effluents. There is, nevertheless, a very wide variation about these typical values, of at least 3 orders of magnitude it is difficult, therefore, to quote fully representative levels. Surface waters provide a much lower potential for widespread mixing than does the atmosphere, where concentrations of constituents are much more consistent. Many surface waters also contain the 3 brominated THMs these are probably derived from discharges of chlorinated potable water after use.
