Abstract
Liquid-phase low-temperature chlorination of saturated hydrocarbons was stu died in the presence of various olefins (inductors). Liquid-phase chlorinat ion of alkanes and chloroalkanes in the presence of a system containing azo bis(isobutyronitrile) and an olefin showed a synergistic effect, i.e., the rate of chlorination in the triple system was much greater than the sum of the rates of chlorination in the binary systems. An effective mechanism was proposed for appearance of radical species which favor chlorination of a s aturated substrate.
