Abstract

Relative percent of dimeric components only. The order of emergence from a C-18 LC column, 8b using 80% CH, CN/H, O, was 3, 5a, and 5b. These are corrected for differences in absorbance at 254 nm. These relative percentages were obtained from GC analysis. An unknown compound, believed to be a 1: 1 reaction product of la and toluene, appeared at an earlier GC retention time (5 min) than that of 3 (13.7 min). Its ratio to the total dimeric ...
