Abstract

Yield,% or-Chloro E-Chloro acid acid Radical trapper(mol%) Registry no. m-CGH,(N02),(7. O) 99-65-0 6.7 1.4 02 77a2-44-7 22.3 oa Chlorine gas was continuously introduced into the substrate at the flow rate of 200 ml/min at 120" for 3 hr in the dark with initial amounts of butyric acid (0.2 mol) and HzS04 (0.02 mol). The flow rate of 02 was 200 ml/min. molecular oxygen on the a-chlorination in the presence of 95% H2SO4 is listed in Table I. The ...
