Comparison of the reactivity of [2.2]paracyclophane and p-xylene
The relative abilities of [2.2]paracyclophane (C16H16) and p-xylene (C6H4Me2-1,4) to form arene tricarbonyl complexes from chromium hexacarbonyl has been studied in dioxane using the Strohmeier reflux method, and the rate constants contrasted. The reactions are found to proceed more quickly with [2....
