Literature References

Alternative to CCl4 (ozone depleter) as a source of Cl in the chlorodehydroxylation of alcohols in the presence of PPh3. See also 1,2-Bis(diphenyl­phosphino)­ethane, A11419. Source of Cl, e.g. in reactions of aryllithiums to give the regiospecifically chloro-substituted derivatives: Tetrahedron Lett., 36, 881 (1995). In the presence of Dichlorotris(triphenyl­phosphine)­ruthenium(II)­, L00373, alkenes undergo selective dichlorination; other groups are unaffected: Tetrahedron Lett., 35, 737 (1994).
