1-Chloro-2-butene Usage And Synthesis

Description

1-Chloro-2-butene is a butenylating agent via Grignard and other organometallic reagents, organoborane compounds, other nucleophiles, and organosilane compounds.

Chemical Properties

colourless liquid

Uses

Crotyl chloride has been used:

• to investihgate the kinetics of the reactions of atomic chlorine with series of unsaturated aldehydes and ketones at 298K, to probe structure-reactivity relationships
• in the preparation of (E)-crotyltrichlorosilane

Preparation

pure isomers of 1-Chloro-2-butene can be prepared by chloride displacement of corresponding alcohols via Ph3P in various solvents, and other chlorinating agents.

General Description

Crotyl chloride reacts with trichlorosilane in the presence of tertiary amine and copper salts to give the corresponding allyltrichlorosilanes.
