Chloroform Carbon tetrachloride

Solutions of dinitrogen pentoxide in nitric acid or sulphuric acid exhibit absorptions in the Raman spectrum at 1050 and 1400 cm with intensities proportional to the stoichiometric concentration of dinitrogen pentoxide, showing that in these media the ionization of dinitrogen pentoxide is complete. Concentrated solutions in water (mole fraction of NgOg > 0-5) show some ionization to nitrate and nitronium ion. Dinitrogen pentoxide is not ionized in solutions in carbon tetrachloride, chloroform or nitromethane. ... 

The products of these reactions are called vicinal dihalides Two substituents m this case the halogens are vicinal if they are attached to adjacent carbons The word is derived from the Latin vicinalis which means neighboring The halogen is either chlorine (CI2) or bromine (Br2) and addition takes place rapidly at room temperature and below m a variety of solvents mcludmg acetic acid carbon tetrachloride chloroform and dichloromethane... 

Hydrogenation of Carbon Tetrachloride. Carbon tetrachloride can be hydrogenated, ie, hydrodechlorinated, to chloroform over a catalyst (25,26) or thermally (27). Although there are no industrial examples of this process at this time, it will receive more attention as more carbon tetrachloride becomes available as the CFC-11 and -12 markets decline (see, Chlorocarbons and chlorohydrocarbons, carbon tetrachloride). Chloroform can be further hydrodechlorinated to methylene chloride (28,29).

Halocarbons including carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, bromotrichloroincthane6 (Scheme 6.7) and carbon tetrabromide have been widely used for the production of tclomcrs and transfer to these compounds has been the subject of a large number of investigations." Representative data are shown in Table 6.4. Telomerization involving halocarbons has also been developed as a means of studying the kinetics and mechanism of radical additions.66... 

One type of fatty liver that has been smdied extensively in rats is due to a deficiency of choline, which has therefore been called a lipotropic factor. The antibiotic puromycin, ethionine (a-amino-y-mercaptobu-tyric acid), carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, phosphorus, lead, and arsenic all cause fatty liver and a marked reduction in concentration of VLDL in rats. Choline will not protect the organism against these agents but appears to aid in recovery. The action of carbon tetrachloride probably involves formation of free radicals...

Heating aluminium powder with carbon tetrachloride, chloromethane or carbon tetrachloride-chloroform mixtures in closed systems to 152°C may cause an explosion, particularly if traces of aluminium chloride are present [1], A mixture of carbon tetrachloride and aluminium powder exploded dining ball-milling [2], and it was later shown that heavy impact would detonate the mixture [3], Mixtures with fluorotrichloroethane and with trichlorotrifluoroethane will flash or spark on heavy impact [4], A virtually unvented aluminium tank containing a 4 1 2 mixture of o-dichlorobenzene, 1,2-dichloroethane and 1,2-dichloropropane exploded violently 7 days after filling. This was attributed to formation of aluminium chloride which catalysed further accelerating attack on the aluminium tank [5], An analysis of the likely course of the Friedel-Crafts reaction and calculation of the likely heat release (29.1 kJ/mol) has been published [26],... 

The violent or explosive reactions which carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, etc., exhibit on direct local contact with gaseous fluorine [1], can be moderated by suitable dilution, catalysis and diffused contact [2], Combustion of perfluorocy-clobutane-fluorine mixtures was detonative between 9.04 and 57.9 vol% of the halocarbon [3], Iodoform reacts very violently with fluorine owing to its high iodine content [4], Explosive properties of mixtures with 1,2-dichlorotetrafluoroethane have been studied [5],...

One incinerator that has been evaluated rather extensively and for which test results have been reported is the liquid chemical waste incinerator facility owned by the Metropolitan Sewer District (MSD) of Greater Cincinnati, Ohio (1 ). The MSD facility uses a rotary kiln and liquid injection cyclone furnace to incinerate a wide variety of liquid industrial chemical wastes. The total design heat release rate is 120 million kJ/h (114 million Btu/h). Tests conducted over a wide temperature range ( 900°C to 1300°C) for six Appendix VIII chemicals (carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, hexachlorobenzene, hexachlorocyclo-pentadiene, and hexachloroethane) have shown DREs equal to or very near 99.99%.
