摘要

The reaction of phenylethynyllithium with 9-bromofluorene yields 9, 9′-bifluorenylidene, 8, 9, 9′-bifluorenyl, 9, and a molecule 10, of formula C52H32, in which coupling has occurred between a 9, 9′-bifluorenyl fragment and a 9, 9′-bifluorenylidene moiety such that a C (9) position of the former is attached to a C (3) site of the latter. This parallels the unsymmetrical radical coupling of triphenylmethyl radicals, which leads to the Gomberg dimer, rather ...
