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.
