The photocatalytic transformations of carbon tetrachloride and aliphatic primary alcohols in the presence of iron trichloride and a molar ratio of components FeCl3: CCl4: ROH = 1: 300: 2550 were studied. CCl4 is transformed into chloroform and hexachloroethane after exposure to a mercury lamp (250 W) to the FeCl3–CCl4–ROH system at 20°C, whereas the primary ROH alcohols are selectively oxidized into acetals (1,1-dialkoxyalkanes). The maximum conversion of CCl4 reaches 80%. The kinetics and mechanism of the photocatalytic conversion of the FeCl3–CCl4–ROH system are considered.
One-step RhCl3-catalyzed deprotection of acyclic N-allyl amides

(Chemical Equation Presented) A convenient one-step RhCl 3-catalyzed deprotection of acyclic N-allyl amides is described. Preliminary mechanistic studies reveal that the key to the success of the one-step deprotection process is the dual function of RhCl3 in alcohol solvents. Reaction of RhCl3 with n-PrOH not only provides an active rhodium hydride species to catalyze isomerization of N-allyl amides to corresponding enamides but also generates a crucial catalytic amount of HCl to convert the enamides to deallylated amides through N,O-acetal exchange.
