Halogenation Using Quaternary Ammonium Polyhalides. XXXII. Dichlorination of Aromatic Acetyl Derivatives with Benzyltrimethylammonium Tetrachloroiodate

The reaction of aromatic acetyl derivatives with 2 molar amounts of benzyltrimethylammonium tetrachloroiodate in acetic acid at 70 deg C for several hours gave dichloroacetyl derivatives in good yields.

A convenient and efficient synthesis of 1-aryl-2,2-dichloroethanones

1-Arylethanones are readily chlorinated with an aqueous HCl-H 2O2 system using ethanol as a cosolvent. The reaction prceeds rapidly and results in selective conversion of 1-arylethanones into 1-aryl-2,2-dichloroethanones in yields of 48-89%, depending on the nature of the substituent in the aryl group.
