A substrate study was undertaken in order to probe the scope of S 2Cl2 coupling of alcohols to form dialkoxy disulfides. Compounds 1b and If are new; along with 1a, 1c, 1h, and 1j, all of the title compounds are fully characterized, and the yields of 1a and 1c have been optimized from previously reported syntheses. The effect of the R-substituent about the OSSO moiety has been carefully probed as yields vary. A substrate and a solvent study of the coalescence behavior of this class was carried out. The origin of the inherently large barrier to rotation and the resultant thermal decomposition pathway is discussed. Both phenomena are shown to be solvent independent; hindered rotation is substrate independent. The decomposition of 1a is ca. 7 kcal/mol higher than the barrier to rotation about the S-S bond. The combined evidence suggests acyclic unsymmetric homolytic cleavage of the dialkoxy disulfide.
Process for the preparation of trichloromethyl-substituted aromatic compounds, and trichloromethyl-substituted aromatic compounds obtained in this process

Trichloromethyl-substituted aromatic compounds are obtained by the chlorination of thioethers of the formula STR1 wherein Ar represents an optionally substituted aryl radial, X1 denotes hydrogen or halogen, and R1 represents optionally substituted alkyl, aralkyl, the nitrile group, an optionally substituted aryl radical or the group STR2 wherein Ar and X have the meaning given. The compounds, of which some are new, can be used as intermediate products for plant protection agents.
