  2. Carbon tetrachloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_tetrachloride

    Carbon tetrachloride, also known by many other names (such as carbon tet for short and tetrachloromethane, also recognised by the IUPAC), is a chemical compound with the chemical formula CCl 4. It is a non-flammable, dense, colourless liquid with a "sweet" chloroform-like odour that can be detected at low levels.

  3. Wohl–Ziegler bromination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wohl–Ziegler_bromination

    The Wohl–Ziegler reaction [1] [2] is a chemical reaction that involves the allylic or benzylic bromination of hydrocarbons using an N-bromosuccinimide and a radical initiator. [3] Best yields are achieved with N-bromosuccinimide in carbon tetrachloride solvent. Several reviews have been published. [4] [5]

  4. Chain transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain_transfer

    Chain transfer agents have at least one weak chemical bond, which therefore facilitates the chain transfer reaction. Common chain transfer agents include thiols, especially dodecyl mercaptan (DDM), and halocarbons such as carbon tetrachloride. Chain transfer agents are sometimes called modifiers or regulators. Transfer to monomer.

  5. Appel reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appel_reaction

    The Appel reaction is an organic reaction that converts an alcohol into an alkyl chloride using triphenylphosphine and carbon tetrachloride. [1] The use of carbon tetrabromide or bromine as a halide source will yield alkyl bromides, whereas using carbon tetraiodide, methyl iodide or iodine gives alkyl iodides. The reaction is credited to and ...

  6. Chloroform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chloroform

    Chloroform, [10] or trichloromethane (often abbreviated as TCM), is an organochloride with the formula C H Cl 3 and a common solvent.It is a volatile, colorless, sweet-smelling, dense liquid produced on a large scale as a precursor to refrigerants and PTFE. [11]

  7. Tetrachloroethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrachloroethylene

    This reaction can be catalyzed by a mixture of potassium chloride and aluminium chloride or by activated carbon. Trichloroethylene is a major byproduct, which is separated by distillation . Worldwide production was about 1 million metric tons (980,000 long tons; 1,100,000 short tons) in 1985.

  9. Zincke–Suhl reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zincke–Suhl_reaction

    The Zincke–Suhl reaction is a special case of a Friedel-Crafts alkylation and was first described by Theodor Zincke and Suhl in 1906. [1] [2] [3] Unlike the traditional Friedel-Crafts reaction, the reduction of the phenyl ring leads to a higher energy final product that can be used as starting material in the dienol–benzene rearrangement, among other reactions.
