Chlorination of Esters. II. Chlorination of Methyl Esters of Heptanoic, Octanoic, Nonanoic and Decanoic Acids. The Isomer Distribution of Monochloro Esters Formed

The chlorination of straight-chain carboxylic acid methyl esters from heptanoic to decanoic acid with chlorine in the liquid and vapour phase and with sulfuryl chloride in the liquid phase has been studied.The monochloro esters formed were analyzed by GLC, the isomer distributions indicating chlorination with chlorine to favour the (ω-1)-position and with sulfuryl chloride the (ω-2)-position.Both methods gave nearly the same results with exception of the ω-position, the substitution of an ω-hydrogen occurring with SO2Cl2 only to half of that with chlorine.A gas chromatogram of a combined mixture of chlorination products is given.
