Abstract

Conclusions Certain derivatives of triarylcarbinols containing an asymmetric carbon atom have been prepared. Phenylbiphenyl-a-naphthylmethylthioglycolic acid has been resolved into a pure levo form,[a]:-13.63', and a mixed dextro isomer [a]: f10. 13'. Experiments with this substance show that it forms halochromic compounds. Concentrated sulfuric acid, perchloric acid and mercuric chloride unite with it to form deep violet halochromic compounds which ...
