General Description

2,2'-Dichlorobenzophenone is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C13H8Cl2O. It is a white to light yellow crystalline powder that is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. It is primarily used as a photoinitiator in the production of polymers and coatings. It is also used as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, dyes, and other organic compounds. 2,2'-Dichlorobenzophenone is considered to be a hazardous substance and should be handled with care due to its potential health and environmental risks.

ACTION OF HETEROPOLY ACID AND RELATED OXIDES IN ACYLATION OF CHLOROBENZENE WITH o-CHLOROBENZOYL CHLORIDE

Heteropoly acids, MoO3, and calcined FeSO4 have been found to catalyze the acylation of chlorobenzene with o-chlorobenzoyl chloride.A kinetic study revealed that those catalysts are not active in their original forms, but the metal chlorides or metal complexes formed by reacting with chlorine are active for the acylation reaction.

Ligand-Free Palladium-Catalyzed Oxidative Carbonylative Homocoupling of Arylboron Reagents at Ambient Pressure

Arylboronic acids or potassium aryltrifluoroborates were readily oxidatively carbonylated to their corresponding diaryl ketones in high yields with high selectivities by ligand-free palladium-catalyzed homocoupling at atmospheric pressure. This novel method employs molecular oxygen or iodine as the oxidant and offers an attractive alternative to transition-metal-based oxidant systems.

Pd-catalyzed enantioselective C-H iodination: Asymmetric synthesis of chiral diarylmethylamines

An enantioselective C-H iodination reaction using a mono-N-benzoyl- protected amino acid has been developed for the synthesis of chiral diarylmethylamines. The reaction uses iodine as the sole oxidant and proceeds at ambient temperature and under air.
