Pyrolysis of 1, 2-dichloropropane

Abstract

Process of pyrolysis 1, 2 dichloropropane to a allyl chloride have been studied. The reaction was carried out both homogeneously without a catalyst and using catalysts: quartz, waterless CaCl2; 15% mass. Cu/SiO2, 15% mass. CaCl2/Al2O3. It is shown that at 1, 2 dichloropropane conversion 15-40 % main pyrolysis byproducts were DCP is (cys-, trans-) 1-CP and 2-CP with trans-1-CP in most. At that parameters of pyrolysis, it is possible to achieve productivity by an allyl chloride 0.5-0.7 g/(ml⋅h).
