PROCESSES FOR PREPARING PENTACHLOROPROPANE AND TETRACHLOROPROPENE FROM DICHLOROPROPENE
-
Paragraph 0093, (2022/04/03)
A processes for preparing 1,1,2,3-tetrachloropropene, 2,3,3,3-tetrachloropropene, or a mixture thereof from 1,3-dichloropropene. The process may include a two successive chlorination and dehydrochlorination reactions. In a first chlorination reaction 1,3-dichloropropene is reacted with a chlorination agent to form a first chlorination reaction product including 1,1,2,3-tetrachloropropane. This first chlorination reaction product is reacted with a dehydrochlorination reagent in a first dehydrochlorination reaction to form a first dehydrochlorination reaction product including a trichloropropene. The trichloropropene containing reaction product is reacted with a chlorination agent in a second chlorination reaction to form a second chlorination reaction product including at least one of 1,1,1,2,3-pentachloropropane or 1,1,2,2,3-pentachloropropane. This reaction product is reacted with a dehydrochlorination reagent in a second dehydrochlorination reaction to form a second dehydrochlorination reaction product having 1,1,2,3-tetrachloropropene or a 2,3,3,3-tetrachloropropene.
PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF CHLORINATED ALKANES
-
Paragraph 0034; 0035, (2013/06/27)
Processes for the production of chlorinated alkanes are provided. The present processes comprise catalyzing the addition of at least two chlorine atoms to an alkane and/or alkene with a catalyst system comprising one or more nonmetallic iodides and/or lower than conventional levels of elemental iodine and at least one Lewis acid. The present processes make use of sulfuryl chloride, or chlorine gas, as a chlorinating agent.
PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF CHLORINATED PROPENES
-
Page/Page column 0064; 0065, (2013/03/26)
Processes for the production of chlorinated propenes are provided. The present processes make use of a feedstock comprising 1,2,3-trichloropropane and chlorinates the 1,1,2,3-tetrachloropropane generated by the process prior to a dehydrochlorination step. Production of the less desirable pentachloropropane isomer, 1,1,2,3,3-pentachloropropane, is thus minimized. The present processes provide better reaction yield as compared to conventional processes that require dehydrochlorination of 1,1,2,3-tetrachloropropane prior to chlorinating the same. The present process can also generate anhydrous HCl as a byproduct that can be removed from the process and used as a feedstock for other processes, while limiting the production of waste water, thus providing further time and cost savings.
