posted on 2018-08-06, 14:23 authored by John M. SketchleyThe reactions of tetrafluorobenzyne and tetrachlorobenzyne
with styrene have been investigated and found to give predominantly
or exclusively 1,2,3,4-tetrahalogeno-9,10-dihydrophenanthrenes
or 1,2,3,4-tetrahalogenophenanthrenes in good
yield. Similar reactions are reported in which the arynes
were generated in the presence of α-methyl-, trans-β-methyl-,
2-methyl-, 3-methyl-, 4-methyl-, and 2,4-dimethylstyrene. Reactions
were also carried out with trans-stilbene, 1,1-diphenylethylene,
1-phenylcyclohexene and 1-vinylnaphthalene. [Continues.]
