NOTES 1671 trichloride (3.76 g., 0.032 mole) in 20 ml. of methylene chloride at -80°. After allowing the mixture to warm, the solvent was removed at the pump. The yellow-orange solid residue was recrystallized from benzene and then from carbon disulfide. Infrared analysis indicated that the compound was triphenylchloromethane. This was confirmed by hydrolyzing a weighed sample in aqueous acetone and titrating the hydrochloric acid liberated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
