Abstract
The mechanism of Cl-F exchange of halogenated cyclopentene with AlCl3in dimethylformamide (DMF) or with AlCl4−in 1,1,1,3,3-pentachloropropane (HCC-240fa) was investigated. It was found that in DMF, AlCl3preferred to attack the position with larger electron cloud density relatively like C(sp2) position, which was attributed to that AlCl3was a strong Lewis acid, and in HCC-240fa, AlCl4−preferred to attack the position with smaller electron cloud density relatively like C(sp3) position, which was attributed to that AlCl4−was a Lewis base. Our experimental results showed that Cl-F exchange with AlCl3occurred mainly on C(sp2) atom, and Cl-F exchange with AlCl4−occurred mainly on C(sp3) atom.
