γγ-Disubstituted itaconic acids. Part III. The stobbe condensation of o- and p-chlorobenzophenone with succinic esters
Abstract
The Stobbe condensation products from o- and p-chlorobenzophenone and succinic esters have been prepared and the conversion of the products and the derived acids into 1-phenylnaphthalene derivatives and 3-aryl-1-oxo-2-indenylacetic acids, respectively, have been studied.
The structure of the products is established by a study of their ultraviolet and infrared spectra.
