Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The electrochemical chlorination of acetone in aqueous hydrochloric acid leads to a mixture of mono- and dichloro derivatives, the ratio of which is a function of the current passed.

  2. 2.

    The electrochemical chlorination of monochloroacetone and 1,1-dichloroacetone in carbonate buffer solution leads to 1,1,1-trichloroacetone in good yield.
