Abstract

The photothermal bromination of diphenylmethane and methyl derivatives with N- bromosuccinimide afforded benzophenone and (polybromomethyl) benzophenones via the hydrolysis of dibromodiphenylmethanes. 1, 2-Diphenylethane and pt-butyl derivative gave dibromostilbenes, while the o-methyl derivative afforded bis (dibromomethyl) dibromodiphenylethane. 10, 11-Dihydro-5H-dibenzo [a, d] cycloheptene gave 9- ...
