Dichloromethane chloride

The reaction itself works by the action of Na or K from NaOH or KOH which form what is called a catechoxide dianion with the two OHs of the catechol species. This makes the two ripe for an attack by a methylene halide which can be either DCM (methylene chloride, or dichloromethane), DBM (methylene bromide, or di-bromomethane) or DIM (methylene iodide, or diiodomethane). DCM is cheap and works pretty well, but DBM and DIM work better yet are more expensive. 

A mixture of 0.10 mol of the acetylenic alcohol, 0.12 mol of triethylamine and 200 ml of dichloromethane (note 1) was cooled to -50°C. Methanesulfinyl chloride (0.12 mol) (for its preparation from CH3SSCH3, (08300)30 and chlorine, see Ref. 73) was added in 10 min at -40 to -50°0. A white precipitate was formed immediately. After the addition the cooling bath was removed and the temperature was allowed to rise to -20°0, then the mixture was vigorously shaken or stirred with 100 ml of water. The lower layer was separated off and the aqueous layer was extracted twice with 10-ml portions of CH2CI2. The combined solutions were dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated in a water-pump vacuum (note 2). The yields of the products, which are pure enough (usually 96%) for further conversions, are normally almost quantitative. 

Fn some cases, r-allylpalladium complex formation by retention syn attack) has been observed. The reaction of the cyclic allyiic chloride 33 with Pd(0) affords the 7r-allylpalladium chlorides 34 and 35 by retention or inversion depending on the solvents and Pd species. For example, retention is observed in benzene, THF, or dichloromethane with Pd2(dba)3. However, the complex formation proceeds by inversion in these solvents with Pd(Ph3P)4, whereas in MeCN and DMSO it is always inversion[33]. The syn attack in this case may be due to coordination of Pd to chlorine in 33, because Pd is halophilic. The definite syn attack in complex formation has been observed using stereoche-mically biased substrates. The reaction of the cxoallylic diphenylphosphino-acetate 36 with phenylzinc proceeds smoothly to give 37. The reaction can be explained by complex formation by a syn mechanism[31]. However, these syn attacks are exceptional, and normally anti attack dominates.

Haloalkylations are accompanied by further alkylation by the initially formed haloalkylated product, yielding diarylalkanes or cychalkylated products, eg, ben2ene reacts with CCl in the presence of AlCl to give C H CCl and (43). With dichloromethane, the initially formed ben2yl chloride is... 

Chlorination of various hydrocarbon feedstocks produces many usehil chlorinated solvents, intermediates, and chemical products. The chlorinated derivatives provide a primary method of upgrading the value of industrial chlorine. The principal chlorinated hydrocarbons produced industrially include chloromethane (methyl chloride), dichloromethane (methylene chloride), trichloromethane (chloroform), tetrachloromethane (carbon tetrachloride), chloroethene (vinyl chloride monomer, VCM), 1,1-dichloroethene (vinylidene chloride), 1,1,2-trichloroethene (trichloroethylene), 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethene (perchloroethylene), mono- and dichloroben2enes, 1,1,1-trichloroethane (methyl chloroform), 1,1,2-trichloroethane, and 1,2-dichloroethane (ethylene dichloride [540-59-0], EDC). 

A 600-mL, three-necked, round-bottomed flask 1s equipped with a mechanical stirrer, a short gas inlet tube, and an efficient reflux condenser fitted with a potassium hydroxide drying tube. The flask is charged with 13.4 g (0.05 mol) of 3-ben2y1-5-(2-hydroxyethyl)-4-methyl-l,3-th1azol1um chloride (Note 11, 72.1 g (1.0 mol) of butyraldehyde (Note 2). 30.3 g (0.3 mol) of triethylamine (Note 2), and 300 raL of absolute ethanol. A slow stream of nitrogen (Note 3) is begun, and the mixture is stirred and heated In an oil bath at 80°C. After 1.5 hr the reaction mixture is cooled to room temperature and concentrated by rotary evaporation. The residual yellow liquid Is poured Into 500 mL of water contained 1n a separatory funnel, and the flask is rinsed with 150 mL of dichloromethane which is then used to extract the aqueous mixture. The aqueous layer is extracted with a second 150-mL portion of... 

Amines can also be purified via their salts, e.g. hydrochlorides. A solution of the amine in dry toluene, diethyl ether, dichloromethane or chloroform is saturated with dry hydrogen chloride (generated by addition of concentrated sulfuric acid to dry sodium chloride, or to concentrated HCl followed by drying the gas through sulfuric acid, or from a hydrogen chloride cylinder) and the insoluble hydrochloride is filte off and dissolved in water. The solution is made alkaline and the amine is extracted, as above. Hydrochlorides can also be prepared by dissolving the amine in ethanolic HCl and adding diethyl ether or petroleum ether. Where...

A liquid not considered flammable may still have an explosive potential. An example is dichloromethane or methylene chloride, often used in paint strippers, which evaporates very quickly. It is not flammable, but its vapors may be explosive (explosive limits 12% to 22%). 

Primary alkyl chlorides are fairly stable to fluorine displacement. When fluorinated, 1-chloropropane is converted to 1-chloroheptafluoropropane and 1-chloto-2-methylbutane produces 39% l-chlorononafluoro-2-methylbutane and 19% perfluoro-2-methylbutane. Secondary and tertiary alkyl chlorides can undergo 1,2-chlorine shifts to afford perfluonnated primary alkyl chlorides 2-Chloro-2-methylpropane gives l-chlorononafluoro-2-methylpropane, and three products are obtained by the fluorination of 3-chloropentane [7] (equation 1). Aerosol fluorina-tion of dichloromethane produces dichlorodifluoromethane which is isolated in 98% purity [4 (equation 2). If the molecule contains only carbon and halogens, the picture is different. Molecular beam analysis has shown that the reaction of fluorine with carbon tetrachlonde, lodotrichloromethane, or bromotrichloromethane proceeds first by abstraction of halogen to form a trichloromethyl radical [5]...
