The process of producing ethynyl aromatic compounds which are useful as intermediates in the preparation of 3-dimensional carbon-carbon structures for aerospace and military applications and as starting materials in the preparation of organic semi-conductors. The ethynyl aromatic compounds may be any of the classes illustrated in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 of the drawing. Starting compounds for the process may by any compound from the classes illustrated in FIGS. 4, 5 and 6. The starting compound is reacted in the presence of a Friedel-Crafts catalyst in a suitable solvent with an acyl compound from the class illustrated in FIG. 7 to yield a compound within the classes illustrated in FIGS. 8, 9 and 10. The carbonyl groups in this compound are reduced to yield a corresponding alcohol. Each hydroxy group in the alcohol is converted to an easily eliminatable group, e.g., by reacting it with methane sulfonyl chloride, when subjected to basic conditions. The chlorine and the easily eliminatable groups are then eliminated under basic conditions to yield the desired ethynyl aromatic compound.Illustrative examples of products produced by the process of the invention include 4-4'-diethynyldiphenyl methane; 1,2-(4,4'-diethynyldiphenyl) ethane; 1,1-(4,4'-diethynyldiphenyl) ethane; tris(4-ethynyl phenyl) methane; 4-ethynyl toluene; 2,2'-(4,4'-diethynyldiphenyl) propane; and 4-ethynyl biphenyl.

The present invention relates to a method for producing aryl-, heteroaryl- or alkenyl-substituted unsaturated hydrocarbons, containing: reacting aryl halides, heteroaryl halides or alkenyl halides with alkynes or alkenes in the presence of a palladium catalyst to obtain a crude product, and subsequently distillatively purifying the crude product in the presence of a compound having at least one NC═S group.
摘要:
A process for the separation of acetylenically unsaturated aromatic hydrocarbons from mixtures containing such hydrocarbons in admixture with vinyl substituted aromatic hydrocarbons, said process comprising contacting said mixture with a halogen selected from the group consisting of bromine, chlorine and mixtures thereof, under halogenation conditions, said halogen being present in an amount such as to halogenate the vinyl substituents of said vinyl substituted aromatic hydrocarbons, and thereafter separating and recovering said acetylenically unsaturated aromatic hydrocarbons.
摘要:
Although phosgene itself does not react with the carbonyl group of acetylbenzenes, the adduct of phosgene and pyridine will react converting the acetyl group to either the Alpha -chlorovinyl or Alpha , Alpha -dichloroethyl group. The Alpha , Alpha dichloroethyl group can be converted to the Alpha -chlorovinyl group and the latter can be dehydrohalogenated to the ethynyl group. This reaction permits low cost phosgene to be substituted for the much more expensive phosphorus pentachloride thereby providing an economical process for converting acetylbenzenes to the corresponding ethynylbenzenes which are useful in making polyacetylenes.
