摘要

Abstract Chloromethyl methyl ether-stannic chloride treatments of toluene, ethylbenzene, isopropylbenzene and tert-butyl benzene afforded respectively, 26.5, 16.8, 5.5 and 2.5% ortho-products. No meta-products could be detected (less than 0.5%). Similar chloroalkylation of linear polystyrenes followed by conversion of the chloromethyl groups to hydroxylmethyl, yielded products possessing 5.0±. 3% ortho-substitution.
