Photochemical Behavior of Stable Free Radicals: The Photochemistry of Perchlorodiphenylmethyl Radical
Ruberu, Shiyamalie,Fox, Marye Anne
, p. 143 - 149 (2007/10/02)
The excitation of perchlorodiphenylmethyl radical (PDM) at 530 nm leads to the lowest excited doublet, D1 (τ = 31 ns), from which emission is observed (Φ = 1 x 10-3 +/- 0.0003).This state is quenched by electron donors and acceptors at a rate at or close to diffusion control and at much slower rates by oxygen and hydrogen atom donors.Fragmentation of PDM (Φd = 0.06) occurs from a higher excited doublet (Dn, n > = 2) producing intermediates that are trapped by O2, chlorine, or hydrogen donors, yielding products 1-6.Experimental evidence suggests a structure-photoreactivity correlation in the perchlorinated arylmethyl radicals in which the partitioning between photochemical cyclization or fragmentation depends on the twist angle between the appended phenyl rings.
An Easy, High-yield Synthesis of Highly Chlorinated Mono-, Di- and Triarylmethanes

A simple, direct, high-yield Friedel-Crafts synthesis of highly chlorinated, overcrowded αH-aryl, αH-diaryl, and αH-triarylmethanes is described.The latter compounds are most valuable chemical precursors of inert free radicals, which are frequently obtain
DESTRUCTIVE CHLORINATION OF ALKYLBENZENES ON HETEROGENEOUS CATALYSTS.

A study was made of the destructive chlorination of alkylbenzenes in the vapor phase on metal oxides and metal chlorides. This work shows that 380-400 degree C, 11-12 sec contact time, 0. 3-0. 8 mass % MoO//3 on alumina, 7-10% stoichiometric excess of chlorine, and 1:9 toluene/chlorine mole ratio were optimal for the chlorination of toluene to give C//6Cl//6 and CCl//4. The optimal conditions for the preparation of pentachlorobenzyl chloride were 295-320 degree C, 18-22 sec contact time, 1:6 toluene/chlorine mole ratio, and 4-8. 5 mass % MgCl//2 on KSK silica gel. The optimal yields of CCl//4 and C//6Cl//6 were 97. 4-98. 2 and 93. 8-96. 3 mole %, respectively, with 91-93 mole % conversion of chlorine.
