This topic has been done to death!
UTFSE !!
Search, besides under propionyl chloride, for
Acetyl chloride
benzoyl chloride
cyanuric chloride
TCT
CC
phthaloyl chloride
oxalyl chloride
And here is one that is a waste of time
thionyl chloride
(simply because its bp is too close to the product's and as it is used in excess it is hard to seperate out.)

You'd do better just to use bromine and a few grams of red P as a catalyst... use an efficiant condensor and keep it shielded from light and you
should be OK.
Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital ingredient in
beer.

He's trying to make priopionyl CHLORIDE
Not alpha-bromoprioionic acid. The conditions you describe are for HVZ alpha-bromination.

Well I kinda figured he might be after that for a certain reaction.

You're a mind reader now?
I was trying to answer his questions as stated rather than making any assumptions about why he wants propionyl chloride or what he plans to make with
it.
That puts us all on a slippery slope, doesn't it?
