AbstractThe occurrence of 4.8–7.2 million tons of hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) isomers stocked in dumpsites around the world constitutes a huge environmental and economical challenge because of their toxicity and persistence. Alkaline treatment of an HCH mixture in a dehydrochlorination reaction is hampered by the low reactivity of the β-HCH isomer (HCl elimination unavoidably occurring through syn H–C–C–Cl arrangements). More intriguingly, the preferential formation of 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene in the β-HCH dehydrochlorination reaction (despite the larger thermodynamical stability of the 1,3,5-isomer) has remained unexplained up to now, though several kinetic studies had been reported. In this paper, we firstly show a detailed Density Functional study on all paths for the hydroxide anion-induced elimination of β-HCH through a three-stage reaction mechanism (involving two types of reaction intermediates). We have now demonstrated that the first reaction intermediate can follow several alternative paths, the preferred route involving abstraction of the most acidic allylic hydrogen which leads to a second reaction intermediate yielding only 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene as the final reaction product. Our theoretical results allow explaining the available experimental data on the β-HCH dehydrochlorination reaction (rate-determining step, regioselectivity, instability of some reaction intermediates).
