AIPABAITUS IQR PRODUCING- TETRAEALOGENATED EYDROOARBONS.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WORTH a citizen of the United States, residing at Baltimore, in the State of Maryland, have 1 tetrachloridev or the corresponding compounds of acetylene with other halogens may be advantageously made. Another object of my invention is to provide an apparatus of this character in which a high yield is obtained. Still another object is to provide anlapparatus of this character which is conducted so as to avoid the esoape'of the reagents and the products desired formed.
; urther objects of my invention will appear from the detailed description thereof contained hereinafter.
While my invention is capable of embodiment in many different forms, for the purpose of illustration I have shown only one form of apparatus in the accompanying drawing, in which: e
The figure is a diagrammatic representation of an apparatus made in accordance with my invention.
In the drawing, I have shown a container 1 which is preferably made of some opaque material, that will not be acted upon by the substances present therein during thetreatment. The container 1 is provided with a valved inlet opening 2 preferably inits top, as shown, and suitable for the liquid materials to be introduced into the container 1, and which is provided also for the purpose of permitting the insertion of a thermometer to determine the temperatures during'the treatment. As above indicated, the apparatus may be utilized for producing acetylene tetrachloride, acetylene tetrabromide, or acetylene tetraiodide, but I shall describe it particularly as'applied to the production of Specification of Letters Patent.

acetylene tetrachloride. For this purpose, I introduce into the container 1 through-the valved inlet opening2 a quantity of ethylene dichloride. After the valved inlet opening 2 has been closed, gaseous chlorine is intro-' duced by means ofan annular perforated pipe 3 located near the bottom of the container 1,so as to thereby agitate the liquid,
and cause the chlorine-to become dissolved therein. The agitation of the liquid is augmented by the operation of mechanical means such as a propeller 4 carried by a shaft 5 in the container 1, and driven by bevel gears 6 and 7 from a driving shaft 8 carrying a pulley 9, which is driven from any suitable source of power.. The rotation of the propeller 4 produces a downward current of the materials in the container 1, tending to cause. the same to pass out through an opa ue tube 10, thence into a glass tube 11, an from this point by means of an opaque tube 12 back into the container 1. The circulation of the liquid in this manner is insured, however, by the presence of a propeller 12 in the tube" 10. In
this way, a continual circulation of the materials is obtained through the glass tube 11; In the interior of the tube 11 there is also shown a mercury vapor light 12 to provide actinic light when the light from the sun is insufficient. There is a considerable rise in temperature due to the combinaso as to form acetylene trichloride and acetylene' tetrachloride. The light admitted to the liquid through the transparent tube 11,
and the heat developed, both facilitate the union of the chlorine with-the ethylene dichloride, and in this way, the production of the acetylene tetrachloride is very much ae- 'celerated. During the treatment, there is an tion of chlorine with the ethylene dichloride,
acetylene trichloride and acetglene tetrachloride which may be vaporize during the treatment. Thetreatment is carried out in this way for from 2 to 3 hours, the liquid level being preferably maintained at about the point indicated in the drawing, and above the transparent chamber, and when the boiling point of the liquid has reached a temperature of ap roximately 104 (3.,
the action is stoppe and the liquid is' drawn off by means 'of a valved outlet pipe 17 located at the bottom of the container. This liquid will comprise a mixture of acetylene trichloride and acetylene tetrachloride with a little ethylene-dichloride, and these liquids may then be readily separated by fractional distillation.
It will be understood that instead of carrying out my invention in such a manner as to produce acetylene tetrachloride, ethylene dibromide may be treated by the injection of bromine in the form of a liquid or vapor stood that other temperatures may be employed according to the circumstances of the particular case and the character of the halogen. ingly be varied considerably from the temperature named, and no particular temperature is deemed essential, it being within the.
skill of those versed in the art to employ the proper temperature at which the action is to be stopped. L
