Reduction of 1,2,3-trichloropropane (TCP): pathways and mechanisms from computational chemistry calculations

Abstract

Lesser halogenated halocarbons such as 1,2,3-trichloropropane (TCP) are persistent under most conditions, but reductive beta-elimination favors complete dechlorination by hydrogenolysis of the allyl chloride intermediate.
