Trichloroacetonitrile Chemical Properties,Uses,Production

Chemical Properties

colourless to slightly yellow liquid

Uses

Trichloroacetonitrile is involved as a reagent in Overman rearrangement, which is used to prepare alylic amines from allylic alcohols. It is also used to prepare bistrichloroacetimidates from diols leading to dihyrooxazines through acid catalyzed cyclization. Further, it is utilized in the synthesis of trichloroacetimidates by 1,8-Diazobicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) catalyzed addition of allylic alcohols. It finds application in the study of the methoxy methyl (MOM) catalyzed aza-Claisen rearrangement.

Uses

Insecticide.

Definition

ChEBI: Trichloroacetonitrile is an aliphatic nitrile and an organochlorine compound.

Production Methods

Trichloroacetonitrile can be obtained by dehydration of trichloroacetamide with phosphorous pentoxide or by chlorination of acetonitrile with chlorine. Vapor phase chlorination in the presence of water and photochemical chlorination in the presence of catalysts such as HgCl2 or AlCl3 have been reported. Trichloroacetonitrile is an organic intermediate used, for example, in the synthesis of the fungicide etridiazole.

Air & Water Reactions

Highly flammable. Insoluble in water.

Reactivity Profile

May be sensitive to light and heat. Trichloroacetonitrile may react with water, steam, acid or acid fumes. Trichloroacetonitrile may hydrolyze under acidic or alkaline conditions. . The reaction of benzene and Trichloroacetonitrile evolves toxic chloroform and HCl gasses. (Hagedorn, F., H.-P. Gelbke, and Federal Republic of Germany. 2002. Nitriles. In Ullman Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.).

Hazard

Strong irritant to tissue. Questionable carcinogen.

Fire Hazard

Trichloroacetonitrile is combustible.

Safety Profile

Poison by ingestion and intravenous routes. Moderately toxic by inhalation and skin contact. Human mutation data reported. A skin and severe eye irritant. An experimental teratogen. Other experimental reproductive effects. When heated to decomposition or in reaction with water, steam, acid, or acid fumes it produces toxic fumes of CN-, Cl-, and NOx. Used as an insecticide.
