“…Residual 1-chloropropene and CC14 were removed by distillation (76-78 °C at atmospheric pressure). The product was purified by vacuum distillation (32-34 °C at 6 mmHg) to afford 5.9 g (38.6 mmol, yield = 29.4%) of the Zand E-isomers of l-chloro-3-bromopropene, in a ratio of 60:40, respectively: *H NMR (CDC13, 300 MHz) [(Z)-l-chloro-3-bromopropene] 6.23 (1 H, d, 7 Hz, ClffCCHCH2Br), 6.12 (1 H, m, ClHCCHCH2Br), and 4.05 (2 H, d, 7 Hz, ClHCCHCH2Br); [(E)-l-chloro-3-bromopropene] 6.35 (1 H, dt, 13 and 1 Hz, ClHCCHCH2Br), 6.16 (1 H, m, ClHCCtfCH2Br), and 3.95 (2 H, d, 7 Hz, ClHCCHCH2Br); EI-MS m/z (% relative intensity) 158 (M'+, 5), 156 (M*+, 19), 154 (M*+, 16), 77 (M*+ -Br, 38), 75 (M'+ -Br, 100).…”
