In another paper from the Jackson Laboratories of the du Pont Company (Calcott et al., 34) there is reported a repetition of some of the reactions of Simons and Archer, as well as additional ones. Mono-, di-, and 1,2,4,5 tetraisopropylbenzene were obtained from propylene and benzene both l -chloro-i-butylbenzene and di-(l/-chloro)-d-butylben-zene were obtained from 3-chloro-2-methyl-propene-l and benzene p-f-butyltoluene and di-i-butyltoluene were obtained from diisobutylene and toluene tetraisopropylnaphthalene was obtained from propylene and naphthalene naphthyl-stearic acid was obtained from oleic acid and naphthalene mixed isopropyltetrahydronaphthalene was obtained from propylene and tetrahydronaphthalene 2,4,6-triisopropylphenol was obtained from propylene and phenol a mixture of monoisopropylated m-cresols was obtained from propylene and wi-cresol and di-(s-hexyl)-diphenyl oxide was obtained from hexene-3 and diphenyl oxide. 

Butyl alcohol and benzene gave both mono- and di-i-butylbenzene (Simons et al., 37). Allyl alcohol reacted with benzene to produce both allylbenzene and 1,2-diphenylpropane. (Simons and Archer, 38.) The activity of the hydroxyl group is indicated in the fact that 2-phenyl-propanol was not separated. Benzyl alcohol reacted with benzene to form diphenylmethane (Simons and Archer, 39) despite the fact that this reaction is reported (Calcott et al., 34) to form 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexa-phenylcyclohexane by the polymerization of the alcohol. Isopropyl alcohol with benzene gave isopropylbenzene, 1,4-diisopropylbenzene,... 

The first derivative of Dewar benzene was prepared in 1962 by irradiation of 1,2,4-tri-i-butylbenzene ... 

Phenol, btomobenzene, i-butylbenzene, and acenaphthene give keto acids in good yields. The reaction is applicable to other aliphatic dibasic acid anhydrides like glutaric anhydride, adipic poly anhydride, and maleic anhydride, furnishing w-aroyl acids. An excellent discussion including experimental conditions and procedures has been given. Optimum conditions for the reaction of naphthalene, biphenyl, and chlorobenzene with phthalic anhydride have been determined. The Corresponding keto acids are obtained in 90-98% yields. In this type of condensation, nitrobenzene is stated to be far superior to other solvents with respect to solvent power and ability to slow side reactions. ... 

Detailed kinetic studies of the decomposition of platinum(II) dineophyls show (Figure 3.60) the exclusive formation of I-butylbenzene and an internally metallated platinum complex (3,3-dimethylplatininadan). 

Measure the dead time by injecting 1,3,5-tri-i-butylbenzene, a void volume marker (13), onto the column. Iq equals 0.43 min.
