The structure and composition of products from the reaction of anthracene oil with anhydrous AlCl3 have been examined. Size-exclusion chromatography has been carried out using a column with polystyrene-polydivinylbenzene as stationary phase, 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone at 80 degrees C as eluent and variable-wavelength UV-absorption detection. This system provides a chromatogram of the sample with several peaks. Molecular masses corresponding to these peaks were estimated using a calibration curve obtained with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon standards, ranging from 92 to 532 u. The most abundant compounds of the substrate were dimers and trimers of the main anthracene oil components. These results are corroborated on a qualitative level by synchronous UV-fluorescence spectra. 相似文献
There are many reports1 of the pyrolysis of fluorinated organic compounds, including the defluorination of cyclic fluorocarbons over iron to give aromatic compounds. Extending this technique we have investigated the flow pyrolysis of some readily accessible unsaturated fluorocarbons, such as I, II, and III, and found these to be synthetically useful routes to fluorinated dienes, cyclobutenes, and furans. Pyrolyses were carried out using a nitrogen flow over platinum, iron or caesium fluoride heated at 430–700°. The various products can all be rationalized in terms of intermediate allylic radicals, and the solid substrate influences which allylic radicals are formed.We are also investigating the chemistry of those now accessible compounds, such as IV, V, and VI, and some of the preliminary results are described. For example the fluoride ion induced dimerisation of IV gave two major products VII and VIII via a particular interesting mechanism.相似文献
