Usage

General Description

1,1,1-Tris(chloromethyl)propane, also known as tris(chloromethyl)propane, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C6H12Cl3. It is a colorless, oily liquid that is commonly used as a crosslinking agent in the production of epoxy resins. Tris(chloromethyl)propane is also utilized as a monomer in the synthesis of polymers and as a building block for the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It is considered to be highly toxic and can cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. Due to its harmful effects, proper safety measures must be taken during its handling and storage.

PRODUCTION OF CYCLIC SULFITES AND THEIR TRANSFORMATION INTO SUBSTITUTED TRI(CHLOROMETHYL)METHANES

The production of cyclic sulfites from trihydric alcohols and their conversion into chlorides by the action of DMFA-SOCl2 complex are described.By PMR and IR spectroscopy it was shown that cyclic sulfites exist preferentially in the chair conformation with the axial orientation of the S=O bond.It was established that the chlorides are formed in two parallel paths, i.e. directly from trihydric alcohols and their cyclic sulfites.
