Mechanism of Chlorination Process: From Propanoic Acid to α-Chloropropanoic Acid and Byproducts Using Propanoic Anhydride as Catalyst

This article reports on findings regarding the mechanism of chlorination process. In this experiment, propanoic acid was chlorinated to α-chloropropanoic acid in a lab-scale glass tube reactor operating at 130°C. Propanoic anhydride and concentrated sulfuric acid were, respectively, used as the cata...
