Abstract

Friedel-Crafts cyclialkylation of aromatics such as 1, 1, 4, 4-tetramethyltetralin with 2, 6- dichloro-2, 6-dimethylheptane does not yield a benzsuberane as previously reported. Several 5-phenyl-substituted chlorides, alcohols, and olefins were synthesized for cyclialkylation studies. These included 2-chloro-2, 6-dimethyl-6-phenylheptane (X a), 3- chloro-3, 7-dimethyl-7-phenyloctane (X b), 2, 6-dimethyl-6-phenyl-2-heptanol, 2, 6- ...
