INTRODUCTION OF METHYL GROUPS INTO POLYCYCLIC COMPOUNDS THROUGH THE PHOSPHONIUM SALTS OF METHYLNAPHTHALENE AND 9-METHYLPHENANTHRENE
Chloromethyl derivatives synthesized by the chloromethylation of naphthalene and methylnaphthalenes were converted into the corresponding triphenylphosphonium salts.Alkaline hydrolysis of the latter gave 1-methylnaphthalene and some di-, tri-, and tetramethylnaphthalenes. 9-Methylphenanthrene was obtained similarly from phenanthrene.The corresponding diarylethenes were synthesized from the phosphonium salts by the Wittig reaction.
