2-CHLORO-2-PROPEN-1-OL Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Uses

2-Chloro-2-propen-1-ol (2-chloropropenol) may be employed as carbon supplement for the growth of Pseudomonas strains. It may be used in the preparation of 2-(4-octylphenyl)prop-2-en-1-ol.

General Description

2-Chloro-2-propen-1-ol is reported to undergo photodissociation at 193nm to generate CH₂CCH₂OH radical intermediate. 2-Chloro-2-propen-1-ol is formed as major product during base mediated reaction of 1,2,3-trichloropropane. 2-Chloro-2-propen-1-ol is reported to react with phosphorus trichloride to yield phosphorous esters, while with phosphory chloride it yields phosphoric ester.
