Darzens halogenation

Not to be confused with Darzens reaction.

Darzens halogenation is the chemical synthesis of alkyl halides from alcohols via the treatment upon reflux of a large excess of thionyl chloride or thionyl bromide (SOX2) in the presence of a small amount of a nitrogen base, such as a tertiary amine or pyridine or its corresponding hydrochloride or hydrobromide salt. The reaction is named after its creator, Auguste Georges Darzens, who first reported it in 1911.[1][2][3]

The addition of the amine and use of a large excess of the thionyl halide as compared to the usual halogenation protocol makes this reaction effective for a wide range of alcohols including those that are difficult to halogenate, such as cyclohexanol, which normally decomposes to form cyclohexene if reacted with only SOCl2.[4] The reaction takes place through an SN2 mechanism but is also often used in the description of SNi mechanisms.

For example, ethanol can be converted into chloroethane (X=Cl) or bromoethane (X=Br) as follows:

CH3CH2OH + SOX2 CH3CH2X + SO2 + HX
