Addition of Cl 2 destroys the aromaticity of the benzene ring, and the addition of two more Cl 2 molecules is rapid compared to the first. Hence, only thrice-dichlorinated product can be isolated from this reaction. Radical addition: C 6 H 6 + 3Cl 2 → C 6 H 6 Cl 6. Hexachlorocyclohexane isomers with more than one chlorine atom per carbon are:
The reaction mechanism for chlorination of benzene is the same as bromination of benzene. Iron(III) bromide and iron(III) chloride become inactivated if they react with water, including moisture in the air. Therefore, they are generated by adding iron filings to bromine or chlorine. Here is the mechanism of this reaction:
Chlorobenzene (abbreviated PhCl) is an aryl chloride and the simplest of the chlorobenzenes, consisting of a benzene ring substituted with one chlorine atom. Its chemical formula is C 6 H 5 Cl. This colorless, flammable liquid is a common solvent and a widely used intermediate in the manufacture of other chemicals. [6]
In commercial applications, the alkylating agents are generally alkenes, some of the largest scale reactions practiced in industry.Such alkylations are of major industrial importance, e.g. for the production of ethylbenzene, the precursor to polystyrene, from benzene and ethylene and for the production of cumene from benzene and propene in cumene process:
The chain mechanism is as follows, using the chlorination of methane as an example: Initiation Ultraviolet radiation splits a chlorine molecule to two chlorine atom radicals. Methane chlorination: initiation Chain propagation (two steps) A radical abstracts a hydrogen atom from methane, leaving a primary methyl radical.

Photochlorination is a chlorination reaction that is initiated by light. Usually a C-H bond is converted to a C-Cl bond. Photochlorination is carried out on an industrial scale. The process is exothermic and proceeds as a chain reaction initiated by the homolytic cleavage of molecular chlorine into chlorine radicals by ultraviolet radiation ...
Chlorobenzenes are a group of aryl chlorides/halobenzenes consisting of one or more chlorine atoms as substituents on a benzene core. They have the formula C 6 H 6–n Cl n, where n = 1–6 is the number of chlorine atoms. Depending on the number of chlorine substituents, there may be several constitutional isomers possible. Monochlorobenzene ...
