Abstract
Chlorination of phenol and ortho-chlorophenol was studied in micellar media in order to observe the effect on regioselectivity. Hydrogen peroxide/hydrochloric acid-aqueous system, which is environmentally a safer route was employed for chlorination. Selectivity ratio was found to be dependent on the nature and concentration of the surfactant. Ortho/para selectivity ratio up to 12 was realized for the chlorination of phenol. 2,6-/2,4-dichlorophenol ratio up to 1.01 was realized for the chlorination of ortho-chlorophenol.Entities:
