chloroform
« on: January 25, 2011, 03:08:13 AM »
Is it possible that "ClH + CH3COCH3" equals chloroform and is there a better way of getting it?

acetone is CH3-CO-CH3, i think and ClH is hydrogen chloride, and if balanced it should equal chloroform...

Chloroform can be obtained in the haloform reaction (showed in wikipedia)
This is the reaction  of acetone with chlorine (Cl2 not HCl or ClH). Moreover strong base is needed.

Hypochlorite is formed in the course of reaction from chlorine and sodium hydroxide
