Dichloroethine is an organic chlorocarbon compound that can be viewed as a chlorinated derivative of ethyne .
history
The compound was first mentioned as an intermediate in 1918 when a tolane was synthesized with the starting materials calcium carbide , chlorine and benzene . The first production was described in 1930 from trichloroethene in the presence of potassium hydroxide and calcium oxide at 130 ° C and from ethyne and chlorine.
Extraction and presentation
A large number of versions of dichloroethine are based on the action of alkali hydroxides or alkali lye on trichloroethene. The dehydrohalogenation of trichloroethene can also be achieved using lithium bis (trimethylsilyl) amide at −78 ° C. This synthesis in the presence of diethyl ether gives a more stable 1: 1 adduct. Production with high yield can be carried out by reacting trichlorethylene with potassium hydride in the presence of a catalytic amount of methanol in tetrahydrofuran . The direct chlorination of ethyne is achieved using potassium hypochlorite .
Pyrolysis of dichloromaleic anhydride at 850 ° C also gives the compound.
properties
Dichloroethine is a very volatile liquid that boils at 32 ° C under normal pressure . The heat of vaporization is 27.4 kJ · mol −1. With a heat of formation of 199 kJ · mol −1 , it is a strongly endothermic compound that tends to decompose explosively and ignites spontaneously in air. A stable 1: 1 compound with diethyl ether containing 55.4% dichloroethine is not explosive and stable in air.
use
The compound is not used commercially because of its highly harmful effects and chemical instability. In organic synthesis, the 1: 1 adduct with diethyl ether can be used to introduce a vinyl, ethynyl or dichlorovinyl function into organic molecules. The implementation z. B. with imidazole gives the N - (1,2-dichlorovinyl) imidazole.
toxicology
According to the Technical Rules for Hazardous Substances (TRGS) 905, the substance is classified as carcinogenic for humans in category K1B.
