Abstract

Results The hypochlorites were prepared by the action of hypochlorous acid on the alcohols. The decompositions were effected thermally or photochemically in Freon 11 ( trichlorofluoromethane), carbon tetrachloride, or cyclohexene. Products were isolated by gas phase chromatography. In most cases an account'ing is made for SO-SO% of the hypochlorite.(Decompo-(1)(a) For a preliminary account of work in this area, see FD ...
