Applications
DescriptionChloroiodomethane is a halogenated hydrocarbon that has been studied for its photolytic properties. For instance, the photolysis of chloroiodomethane in cryogenic matrices along with recombination of the nascent radical pair was studied.
UsesChloroiodomethane is used as an intermediate in pharmaceuticals, organic synthesis, agrochemicals and dyestuff. It is also useful in cyclopropanation (Simmon-Smith reaction), Mannich reaction, aminomethylation and in epoxidation.
General DescriptionThe photolysis of chloroiodomethane in cryogenic matrices along with recombination of the nascent radical pair was studied.
