Free-radical reactions of halogenated bridged polycyclic compounds. Part XII. The formation of 1,2,3,5,5,6,6-heptachloronorborn-2-ene in the attempted chlorocarbonylation of 1,2,3,4,7,7-hexachloronorborn-2-ene
Abstract
An attempt to chlorocarbonylate 1,2,3,4,7,7-hexachloronorborn-2-ene by treatment with oxalyl chloride and u.v. light afforded 1,2,3,5,5,6,6-heptachloronorborn-2-ene as sole product.
