Geminal‐dichloromethyl derivatives could be efficiently synthesized by the highly chemoselective platinum on carbon‐catalyzed mono‐dechlorination of trichloromethyl substrates in dimethylacetamide (DMA) as a specific solvent at 25 °C under a hydrogen atmosphere.
An electrochemical oxydihalogenation of alkynes has been developed for the first time. Using this sustainable protocol, a variety of α,α-dihaloketones can be prepared with readily available CHCl3, CH2Cl2, ClCH2CH2Cl, and CH2Br2 as the halogen source under electrochemical conditions at room temperature.

novel β-(oxy)alkyl radical derived from trichloro methyl compound containing neither a suitably located C–C multiple bond nor a leaving group or a H-atom at the β-position of the radical in a reaction of 2,2,2-trichloro-1-phenyl-ethanone with 2 mol equiv each of CuCl and bpy in refluxing DCE under a N2 atm underwent intramolecular heterolysis (just like formation of intact radical cation–anion pair)
