Chlorocyclopropane is a organochlorine compound with the chemical formula C3H5Cl.[1] The compound is a member of haloalkane family.[2]
Synthesis
[edit]The compound can be obtained by photoreaction of cyclopropane and chlorine gas; the reaction will generate polychlorinated compounds, which can be separated by physical means.[3]
Chemical properties
[edit]The compound isomerizes on heating to 3-Chloropropene.[4] Chlorocyclopropane reacts with lithium metal in ether to produce bicyclopropane. Also, it reacts with magnesium to obtain cyclopropylmagnesium chloride.[5]
