反応手順

36.2 gms of 3-methyl benzal chloride in 207 gms of solvent, tetrachloroethylene, was added into a reaction vessel with 53.9 gms of hexachloroethane, 66.3 gms of 50% sodium hydroxide, and 1.4 gms of Aliquot 4. The mixture was stirred and refluxed under partial vacuum at about 90° C. for about 1 hour. 20.3 ml of water was removed from the mixture via a Dean Stark trap during this period. The mixture was refluxed for another hour an additional 10.5 ml of water was removed. 200 ml of water was added to the cooled mixture and 15 gms of HCl gas was added until the mixture turned acidic. After standing for 2 days, the organic layer was removed and the tetrachloroethylene was distilled off under reduced pressure. The remaining residue was then distilled to give 36.7 gms of a clear oil. b.p. 80° -90° C. (0.6-1.0 mm/Hg-0.8-1.33×105 pascals). (Yield 85% - 97.2 assay).
