| Application: | Chloroform can be used as a solvent: • To synthesize diaryl ketones. • In the palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction of arylboronic acids with acid chlorides under the phosphine-free condition to synthesize aryl ketones. It can also be used as a phosgene precursor in Friedel-Crafts-type aminocarbonylation.(3) |
| General description: | Chloroform is an organic solvent that can beproduced by the chlorination of methane or lower-chlorinated methanes. |
