Error in Synthesis section edit

Phrase "adding the solvents dichloromethane and trichloronitromethane". First solvent does not enter reaction, text implies it does or has a purpose. Not trichloronitromethane but should be 2,2,2-TriChloroNitroEthane. Trichloronitromethane is Chloropicrin which would not work in this reaction. Not mentioned was base necessary to deprotonate the nitroethane (and after losing Chloride) becoming the DiChloroNitroethylene.
