The chlorination of vinyl chloride.
Vcm is among the top twenty largest petrochemicals in world production.
A plausible addition elimination mechanism is proposed.
This catalytic method enables a green route to aryl z vinyl chlorides.
Samples of chlorinated poly vinyl chloride cpvc and chlorinated β β dideuterated poly vinyl chloride β β d2 cpvc were prepared under identical reaction conditions.

The united states currently remains the largest vcm manufacturing region because of its low production cost position in chlorine and ethylen.
The microstructure of cpvc and β β d2 cpvc was characterized by a combination of 1h nmr 13c nmr spectroscopy and analytically determined chlorine content.
In one ethylene is converted to 1 2 dichloroethane ethylene chloride by reaction with chlorine.
This colorless compound is an important industrial chemical chiefly used to produce the polymer polyvinyl chloride.
About 13 billion kilograms are produced annually.
Vinyl chloride is an organochloride with the formula h2c chcl that is also called vinyl chloride monomer or chloroethene.
The major industrial preparation of vinyl chloride begins with ethylene and has two variants.
