Phenol chlorination and photochlorination in the presence of chloride ions in homogeneous aqueous solution
Phenol chlorination was studied in the presence of dissolved Fe(III) and chloride under irradiation and of hydrogen peroxide and chloride in dark acidic solutions. In the former case phenol photochlorination is most likely due to the formation of Cl2−• as a consequence of Fe(III) irradiation in the...

Phenol chlorination was studied in the presence of dissolved Fe(III) and chloride under irradiation and of hydrogen peroxide and chloride in dark acidic solutions.

The most efficient pathway is the photolysis of FeOH2+ producing hydroxyl, which oxidizes chloride to Cl•. The latter finally yields Cl2−• upon further reaction with chloride. The importance of the pathway involving FeOH2+ is higher at higher pH and moderately low chloride concentration.
