## Abstract The thermal decarboxylation of alkali trichloroacetates in aprotic solvents in the presence of olefins has been investigated. The isolation of dichlorocyclopropanes in good yields demonstrates the formation of CCl~2~ as an intermediate. By this method, the reaction of base‐sensitive acc

Abstract
Thermal decomposition of sodium trichloroacetate in 1,2‐dimethoxyethane in the presence of various perchloro compounds leads to α,β‐elimination of chlorine from these compounds and formation of CCl~4~. Hexachlorocyclopentadiene yields decachlorobi‐(2,4‐cyclopentadien‐1‐yl)
These results point to a mechanism involving Cl^+^‐abstraction by the CCl~3~^−^ion.

## Abstract Sodium trichloroacrylate decomposes in 1,2‐dimethoxyethane at 90° to give quantitative yields of CO~2~ and NaCl. Evidence is presented that this decarboxylation involves the trichlorovinyl anion, CCl~2~CCl^−^, as an intermediate.
## Abstract The isomerization reaction of cholest‐5‐en‐3‐one has been studied in a solution of cyclohexane using trichloroacetic acid as catalyst. At the same time a general reaction scheme is proposed to be valid for all the cases assayed in which the monomer form of the acid is considered as the
