Diphenylacetylene is the chemical compound C6H5C≡CC6H5. The molecule consists of phenyl groups attached to both ends of an alkyne. It is a colorless crystalline material that is widely used as a building block in organic and as a ligand in organometallic chemistry.
Preparation
Several preparations for this compound exist:
- benzil is condensed with hydrazine to give the bis(hydrazone), which is oxidized with mercury oxide.[1]
- stilbene is brominated, then dehydrohalogenated,[2] but the product can be contaminated with stilbene, which is difficult to remove.[1]
- One method starts from iodobenzene and the copper salt of phenylacetylene in the Castro-Stephens coupling
Interesting derivatives
- Reaction of Ph2C2 with tetraphenylcyclopentadienone results in the formation of hexaphenylbenzene.[3]
- Reaction of Ph2C2 with benzal chloride in the presence of potassium t-butoxide affords the 3-alkoxycyclopropene which coverts to the cyclopropenium ion.[4]
