Abstract

The use of silica gel and other solids with active surfaces as catalysts for gas-phase dehydrohalogenation at high temperatures (200-500" C) is well-known. An El or like El mechanism is generally accepted for reactions over silica By contrast, there is little information about reactions performed in solution. Incremona and Martin3 reported the 2d formation (56% yield) by passing Id through a column of Fluorosil with carbon ...
