Reactions in which Chloroform is involved

  • CHCl3 + 4NaOH → HCOONa + 3NaCl + 2H2O
  • C2HCl3(OH)2 + NaOH → CHCl3 + HCOONa + H2O
  • C2H5OH + 4KOCl -> CHCl3 + HCOOK + KCl + 2KOH + H2O
  • P(C6H5)3 + C{X}4 + {R}CH2OH → OP(C6H5)3 + {R}CH2{X} + HC{X}3 , where X = Cl Br; R = CH3 CH3CH2 CH3CH2CH2
  • OH|\\|`//`\`||/ + CHCl3 + 3{M}OH -> OH|\|`//`\`||/\/`|O|\H + 2H2O + 3{M}Cl , where M = K Na
