摘要
Carbon tetrachloride is no longer used as a common solvent due to its toxicity and harmful environmental impact. The synthesis of gem-dichloroalkenes from aldehydes by using triphenylphosphine typically requires carbon tetrachloride as a solvent. We report that stoichiometric bromotrichloromethane in acetonitrile can be used in place of solvent quantities of carbon tetrachloride in this transformation. Similarly, bromotrichloromethane in dichloromethane can be used for the room-temperature Appel reaction of benzyl alcohols to form benzyl chlorides, which is commonly carried out in refluxing carbon tetrachloride.
