Preparation of benzyne from phenyl benzenesulphonate
Abstract
Phenyl benzenesulphonate (7) gives benzyne when treated with lithium tetramethylpiperidide (9). The yields of various benzyne-derived products are not as high as when bromobenzene is used to generate the benzyne. Such benzyne as is produced comes entirely from the aromatic ring derived from the phenol.
