INVESTIGATION IN THE REGION OF ACYL PEROXIDES. XLVII. REACTION OF ACETYL PEROXIDE WITH TRICHLOROETHYLENE

The main products from the reaction of acetyl peroxide with trichloroethylene are 1,1,3,3,4,4-hexachloro-1-butene (dimer) and 1,1,3,3,4-pentachloro-1-pentene, the yields of which amount to 4.0 and 0.6 mole respectively per mole of acetyl peroxide.It was shown that dehydrochlorination of the dimer by the action of ferric chloride is a convenient preparative method for the production of 2-H-pentachloro-1,3-butadiene.
