| Abstract: | Synthesis of bibenzyl has
been attempted using Friedel-Crafts reaction, Wurtz reaction, Wolff Kishner
reduction using hydrazine hydrate and reductions involving Zn-NiCl2.6H2O
and sodium bis-(2-methoxyethoxy)-aluminium hydride (a Vitride reagent). The
yields of bibenzyl obtained by the four different routes have been compared. A
single-step reduction of stilbene using Zn-NiCl2.6H2O
results in the highest yield. |
