Summary
-
1.
A method has been proposed for the splitting of hydrogen chloride from α, α,α,ω-tetrachloroalkanes and α, α, α-trichloroalkanes by heating these substances with catalytic amounts of anhydrous ferric chloride.
-
2.
It has been shown that no isomerization of the carbon chain occurs under the conditions used for the removal of the elements of hydrogen chloride in presence of anhydrous ferric chloride or aluminum chloride.
