Title: On the dehydrochlorination of tert-butyl chloride on pure and doped silver chloride
Abstract: Abstract The catalytic properties of both pure and doped silver chloride in the dark and under illumination were studied by the decomposition of tert -butyl chloride between 100 ° and 150 °C. It was found that the freshly rechlorinated silver chloride surface caused a large rate of decomposition. This catalytic activity, however, is diminished by the irreversible surface reaction of chemisorbed chlorine species reacting with silver ions with the generation of silver ion vacancies. A doping with cadmium chloride had no effect on the catalytic properties of silver chloride. However, silver chloride doped with cuprous chloride produced a catalyst which without any chlorine treatment shows a promising catalytic activity for a considerable length of time.
