Abstract

A study of the higher boiling products formed by reactions of ethyl trichloroacetate and sodium methoxide (dichlorocarbene) with ethyl phenyl sulfide, phenyl n-propyl sulfide, and methyl phenyl sulfide has shown that trichloromethyl substituted suEdes, and/or products derived from them by loss of hydrogen chloride, are formed, The mechanism of inhibition of addition of dichlorocarbene to olefins by sulfides and the mechanism of insertion of ...
